What are the basic rules for a pick-of-the-litter arrangement? General Dog Discussions
I am breeding my standard poodle this winter. I have discussed health test results, and conformation evaluations with the owner of the stud dog. She did not want me to pay her a stud fee. Instead, she wanted pick of the litter. This is fine with me. Problem is, there are so many variables. What if my girl only has one puppy? What if all the puppies die? At what age must the pick of the litter be chosen so that I can have the people on my waiting list pick their puppies?I need a list of basic "rules" to be agreed upon ahead of time so that there are no misunderstandings or arguments.
