assume financial responsibility for the care of the Bloodhound until it is re-placed and/or will resume
custody of the Bloodhound.

certificate of health, which includes the name, address, and telephone number of the attending
veterinarian.
•
I agree to provide a written contact/agreement for each sale or service, which includes special conditions

I agree not to promote indiscriminate breeding practices by using the advertising of availability of
“breeding pairs,” or “bitches in whelp for sale” in my effort to sell my Bloodhounds.
•
I agree not to release any puppy to its new owner prior to eight weeks of age or what the local ordinance
states.

I agree to act in a sportsmanlike manner and not deliberately degrade other exhibitors/breeders or their
dogs.
