Puppy Culture Potluck: Ep17 - Puppy Contracts: Are They Worth the Paper They’re Written On?

This week’s question is about Breeder-Puppy Buyer contracts:

Our puppies are 7 weeks old now and will be going to their new families in 3 weeks. I have been following along each day and this experience with the puppies has been incredible.

Thank you for "holding my hand" throughout. We are getting to the part that I just feel I am not prepared or knowledgeable enough....THE CONTRACT. I, too, want to keep it simple.....feed healthy, train in a positive way, and bring back the puppy if something changes.

Would you be able to share an example or a template perhaps? I would appreciate any assistance you can provide.

 

Episode highlights:

• How to decide what should be in your contract, and what should be in your puppy application
• How to screen out some puppy buyers who would not comply with the terms of your contract
• Why having a written contract is important
