I do NOT have a fear of signing a contract, but mine is to include that the Yorkie will be shown, and efforts will be made to see that Yorkie get their Championship. I think this is a differenct contract than a Breeding Contract....right????And besides, I will need ALL the MENTORING help I can get to get where I want to be in the YORKIE WORLD.

Okay -
1. Yes, breeding/showing contracts are and should be different than norm. pet contracts. Wording needs to be different and would be too wordy if one contract included both information.
2. From the research I have collected and asked experts Liver shunts is genectic and
laxtaiting petellas can either be genetic or by accidents. An experienced vet would do x-rays and look at the damage such as scaring, exactly where the damage as occured, etc,,, very involved and costly to know for sure if it was genetic or accidents. This is why covering LP is usually not covered in contracts - genetics. But should be checked before buying.
2. I have signed contracts before and it should protect both the breeder and the buyer. This way everything is spelled out or should be. You can always change certain parts of the contract if both parties agree.
In my last contract in which I bought a show prospect older pup (which I co-own with the breeder) - I have to show that I am making my best effort to show her and gain her championship and includes a pick of litter pup from first breeding and choice of stud is decided together with myself and breeder and then I would gain full ownership only after I show proof of her champion certificate. If something happens along the way and we know I tried everything to get her finished but she just won't be finishable we will talk and redo things.This is a normal contract you would have to follow by any top breeder. Oh, I also must show the breeders name in any advertising at my total cost. And that they are not responsible for any cost of care. But this is what you do if you really want a nice, really nice yorkie to show. I also paid a lot for her and I mean a lot! It is normal!
Main thing is trust! You need to trust one another - it is mutual!
3. When I sell any of my pups - I am also including any mentoring - hours and hours of help if needed at no extra cost. This is what good reputable breeders do because we care ~ no difference if it is for a pet or for show! I have a male pup now that I hope will be good enough to show. You better be sure that I would want him in the right hands.
