Seeing as I have not done any of this since I was a kid, I would be interested too. Please post some of this information so I can read it too. Thankxxxx, Sheila PPeters908@xxxxxxx wrote: We are first time breeders, have a litter of nine beautiful five week old babies and are very interested in hearing your opinions on when to give puppies their first shots. We've heard varying opinions on this from different veterinarians in our area and we are interested to learn what other breeder practices have been over the years and whether you have changed your practices recently and why. Also interested in learning about what others have in place are far as puppy sales contracts. We have gathered several samples but welcome more. Just wondering too, how many perform any type of puppy aptitude test. For us less experienced breeders this would seem to be an important part of our learning process and important to potential buyers. Would appreciate posting your feedback to the list so that others may also benefit for your experience and expertise.
