Contracts With Breeders

You may be asked to sign a contract with the breeder when you purchase a purebred dog.  Make sure you read the entire contract and understand it, before you sign it.  If something is unclear or simply hard to understand, ask questions.  If the answers you receive clear things up and you feel comfortable with the conditions of the contract then proceed; otherwise have a lawyer look at the contract or simply walk away.

A spay/neuter requirement by a certain age, may be a contract requirement by the breeder.  Breeders want to insure that only certain dogs are used in breeding.  The reputable breeder knows what dogs are show quality and which are pets.  If you have the attitude that spay/neuter policy is up to you personally; then don't buy from someone requesting this in a contract.
