Write a contract that has the key elements of care you want followed to protect the health and welfare of your pet. <\/p>\n<p>You are not going to check and see if this pet is walked for an hour 3 times a day.&nbsp; If you sell pets cross-country are you really able to enforce the walk\/bathe rules?&nbsp; It is a nice to have and should be in your puppy\/adoption packet on the page where you list the proper method of care. <\/p>\n<p>These are suggestions, ones you hope the new owner will abide by.&nbsp; Including a clause that enables you to go on their property, at any time, to take the dog back if you feel it is not being cared for properly, without some form of proof that the care is unsanitary or unsafe, is unfair and probably unenforceable.<\/p>\n<p>B.) Honesty is the best policy.&nbsp; It would be nice to require the moon.&nbsp; It would be nice if we could think of all the things we would like back from this owner or require this owner to do. <\/p>\n<p>Lets see, what are some of the terms people put in their contracts and amazingly other people agreed to and signed<\/p>\n<p>i)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; First pick bitch and dog from the first 3 litters<br \/>ii)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Seller gets the bitch back for 3 litters before she is 6<br \/>iii)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Seller gets to use the dog at stud for life<br \/>iv)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Buyer has to bring the dog down to be collected at a veterinarian of sellers choice at buyers expense<br \/>v)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Rescue can take a dog back for any reason if it feels it is in an unsafe situation (no definition of unsafe)<br \/>vi)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Buyer must finish the dog to its championship in obedience\/conformation\/field by age 3 at their own expense<\/p>\n<p>Do you see where I am going with these terms?&nbsp; A court would be hard pressed to take these terms seriously.&nbsp; If they did one party would be left holding the bag.&nbsp; It would all depend on how the court construed the term.&nbsp; Buyer beware or Seller too restrictive. <\/p>\n<p>C.) Even if you are friends with the breeder\/buyer or you are doing Gods work by adopting from a rescue don\u2019t leave common sense at the door.&nbsp; READ the contract.&nbsp; If you have questions or concerns address them before you bring the pet home.&nbsp; Understand they have their way of doing business.&nbsp; Choose to play their game or choose to walk away.&nbsp; Let your head rule your heart for this one brief shining moment. <\/p>\n<p>This is the next great pet; you feel it in your bones.&nbsp; Do you want to give the rescue or seller the right to come and take the pet without giving you 5 minutes notice if in their opinion\u2026what ever that is, you are not taking care of the dog in a safe manner?<\/p>\n<p>Step away from the contract. Step away from the pet.&nbsp; This is not the situation you want to enter into for the next 10-15 years.&nbsp; You want a nurturing environment for yourself and your pet to thrive in.<\/p>\n<p>D.) This next suggestion may sound a bit self-serving, but please think about adding a mediation clause.&nbsp; If you could have a conversation, confidentially with the person with whom you are in conflict would you take that opportunity?&nbsp; If so, arrange for it up front.&nbsp; Set the terms and trigger and pull it before the conflict gets so bad you cannot sit in the same room.&nbsp; Having a neutral help guide the discussion will be a lifesaver and relationship saver. The breeder will maintain a relationship with its owner\/handler; the rescue with its adopter.&nbsp; In the end the best interests of the pet will always be the paramount consideration for all parties.<\/p>\n<p>The Big C can be daunting.&nbsp; I hope after reading this post you realize The Big C can be Carefully written with Compassion and Concern so The Contract is just what the parties ordered.<\/p>\n<div><a href=\"https:\/\/www.hamiltonlawandmediation.com\/\" target=\"_blank\"><i>\u2014Debra Vey Voda-Hamilton<\/i><\/a><\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<span class=\"et_bloom_bottom_trigger\"><\/span>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>For years I practiced in the litigation arena.&nbsp; It never ceased to amaze me how many people wrote unenforceable contracts or never read the contracts they signed.
