As a breeder, I reserve the right to:

• Legally enforce my contracts with specific stipulations and in my residential county

• Request update pictures as the puppy goes through it’s life stages, so I can determine the quality of my lines, as well as ensure the puppy’s welfare

• Require a spay/neuter contract with a signed contract

• Decline breeding rights

• Decline applications

• Decline mentoring requests (Generally this occurs if there’s not a good communication fit, an unwillingness to listen, or something as serious as unethical behavior or dishonesty in business practices)

• Reserve potential breeder quality dogs for my own program

• Place any submitted pictures of puppies from my kennel on my website

• Decline on-site visits for the safety of my family and kennel program (link to current cases)

• No longer respond to inquiries if I perceive a hostile or nefarious motivation
