hi! i know that when your bitch has a litter of puppies you should sell the pet quality ones with a spay/neuter agreement and they sell for less than the show/breeding potential ones. but how do you know which have show potential and which are pet quality at such an early age? what happens if you sell a nice looking one without a spay/neuter agreement but it turns out to have a mismark? or what would happen if you did sell one with a spay/neuter agreement but it turned out to be perfect for breeding?! you will probably tell me to ask my breeder to juge the pups but how do THEY know!?

Hi guest, think you are starting off from the wrong point. What country are you from, in the UK it is not normal for a breeder to sell a pup on such agreement. It may be in other parts of the world but I don't know of any, and yes you are correct you can't know unless the dog is mis-marked or the incorrect colour. Or has some fault that is so bad that there would be no chance of the pup being show or breeding stock.
