The fee is $800.00 (which is close to the price of pick of the litter); however, there are provisions for adjustments down from that price like: there has to be at least 3 puppies, only two and the price goes down to $500.00; only one and the price goes down to $300.00. If a C-section is performed, the price goes down to $500.00 for 3 puppies and $300.00 for 2 or less. Puppies that die before selling or have any health problems that prevent selling are not counted.
I think it is fair since I've been on both sides. |
That appers to be a generous contract. Maybe more of them should be written on a per pup basis, so much for each live birth.
