limited registration criteria - Page 5

Yes two Moons you are correct it all comes down to preference and choice.

If the buyer is not planning on breeding, then the limited registration vs full doesn't matter in the least.  No plans on breeding, then there are no "strings attached" to worry about.

I think the idea behind a limited registration is a nobel one.  Cudos to those of you that do it and are successful at selling your puppies that way.  I, however, would never purchase a puppy under those circumstances.  To me .......... that's giving the breeder control over the value of something I have already paid for and I get no control over that breeder.  Two years is a long time and anything could happen.  I could work my butt off titling my dog just to find out that the breeder was killed in a car accident the day before my trial.  That might sound awful .......... but bad things happen to people all the time and I would never count on someone else being around when the time came to lift the limitation.  But that's just me. 

Question to breeders that only sell pups on limited reg. Do you only stud out your males to breeders that sell the pups on limited reg?

If no, why not?

Maybe it is just a principle thing with me Molly. You are an excellent breeder and very respected by many. It is obvious that you work very hard with your dogs and are very successive with them Cudos to you. But It matters to me anyway sorry. I respect that you all want to protect the breed I just am not one who feels you have to protect it from. I would not purchase a dog on a limited registration even though I am not a breeder and never would be I leave that to other more capable people. And yes the heat of the moment often gets us in trouble Kelly. You have right to the practices you use.

LynOD:

       Okay so you would not have a problem buying a pup with full regs and sterilized?

Let face it Bob you and I aren'etgoing to see eye to eye and leave it at that. To each his own

LynOD:

                It,s called trust, you expect the breeder to trust that your not going to breed the dog,The breeder expects you to trust then that there word  is good on the options for full regs? 

Can YOU be trusted it a easy answer... and you didnt answer my question above? 

Lets get to hard tak here on this thread...

Honesty is the best policy.

 You all who are protestiong the limited are really more concerend that down the road when this little puppy grows he or she looks good shows some drive and you have seen people getting 1500.00 for dogs that don,t look near as good as yours hell you paid for it you desire the abality to make those puppies... I agree sounds good but why doesnt the breeder have the same right to say okay you bought a pet or dog to work but don,t plan on breeding thats good BUT a few years down the road you want that right the breeder should have the same right to say as long as you meet breeding criteriea made at sale go ahead  ofa,d title show do the same work that brought you this same wonderful pup.

Honestly it,s called MONEY
