BREEDING RIGHTS POLICY

Companion placement is the default. Breeding rights require separate written approval.

Owning a puppy, receiving a pedigree, or having a dog that is registry-eligible does not create permission to breed. Breeding authorization exists only when it is specifically granted in the puppy's signed documents.

WHY WE DRAW A HARD LINE

Breeding decisions affect the dogs long after a sale is complete.

Our goal is to protect maternal welfare, stable temperament, sound structure, and responsible Chihuahua ownership. We do not treat breeding rights as a simple price upgrade.

01 / COMPANION DEFAULT

No breeding authority is implied

Unless a puppy-specific written addendum expressly grants breeding rights, the placement is for companionship only and the buyer agrees not to breed the dog.

02 / WRITTEN AUTHORIZATION

Full rights must be explicit

Any breeding authorization must identify the dog and the approved terms in writing before breeding occurs. Verbal conversations do not override the signed agreement.

03 / PROGRAM REVIEW

Breeding applicants receive additional screening

We may ask about experience, mentor or veterinarian relationships, housing and whelping plans, emergency care, record keeping, puppy-placement practices, and the goals of the breeding program.

04 / HEALTH TESTING

Breeding requires more than registration papers

Approved breeding homes are expected to use appropriate DNA, veterinary, and breed-relevant structural health information before pairing dogs. Exact requirements are stated in the breeding-rights addendum.

05 / REGISTRATION

Registry status follows the signed placement terms

A dog may be placed with limited or other registry restrictions when applicable. The final registration status and any requirements for release or change are documented in writing.

06 / BIOLOGY

Breeding rights do not guarantee breeding results

No authorization can guarantee fertility, conception, litter size, sex distribution, show results, adult size, or other outcomes controlled by biology.

CONTRACT ENFORCEMENT

Unauthorized breeding is a contract violation.

Any remedies for unauthorized breeding, registry misuse, transfer, or other breach are the remedies stated in the signed Bill of Sale and breeding-rights documents and those available under applicable law. We do not publish invented penalties on the website that are not actually part of the signed agreement.
