You owe them nothing. That was their careless mistake or maybe it was done on purpose....who knows. That happened to me about 15 years ago. Someone bred to my Ch.Elway and then their babysitter let their bitch out with their own male by mistake and he bred her. She called me crying. The first thing that I said is you still owe me my stud fee. They did turn out to be my boy's puppies.

I required them to DNA the puppies (info not back yet)..... OK Here is the question.... if the puppies are 'their' boy's puppies because they let their bitch out with him.... do I own them a Stud service back to my stud? I look forward to hearing from you. (public or Private is fine) TIA, Sally Sally Bazzell Haney ~ Ray J's GSD's Krounty K-9 DTC Chehalis, Wa ============================================================================ POST is Copyrighted 2012.
