Thanks for your help! |
Does the bill of sale; denote "as is" or words to that effect. No provision for "if she does prove to be pregnant"?
If that contract also has full breeding rights, as was NOT sold on a spay and neuter contract: THEN:
1) You owe the seller nothing
2) You should DNA the litter. Request the DNA from the stud she was alledgedy bred to. And if the DNA proves the puppies are from that stud. Then morally/ethically you do "owe" something to the stud owners. Unless of course the stud owners already had received payment from the breeding with the original bitch owner.
Now you have a right to be worried. Have you ever whelped a litter before? Do you have a great vet? A mentor?
Should she prove to be pregnant, can you confidently go ahead with trying to whelp and raise a litter on your own?
Actually in this situation I hope it is a false pregnancy.
