When people hear the term "co-own", their first response is sometimes "I don't want to co-own a dog, I want to own my dog outright." The idea of a breeder maintaining "partial ownership" of a puppy they are placing may be confusing and even distasteful to some at first glance.

A co-ownership takes no right of "possession" or ownership away from the new owner, and it is typically stipulated within such a contract that this person is to keep the dog as part of their family for life once both parties are satisfied with the placement (which typically takes a few weeks, or longer in the case of an older pup) -- or until such circumstance occurs that they deem it reasonable to return the dog to the breeder. In some cases, a co-owned dog will be a top notch representative of the breed and important to the breeding program, and then the details related to breeding will be included in the contract.

The new owner benefits in co-ownership by being assurred of a lifelong interest in the dog on the part of the breeder who stands behind that dog one hundred percent. The breeder benefits in knowing that the new owner is honest and sincere in the promises they are making regarding the level of care and commitment they are assuring they will make to their new puppy. The puppy benefits in having a wonderful home and a genuine "safety net" should that wonderful home ever disintegrate through circumstances that are unforseen at the outset. Co-ownership also has many great financial benefits for the new buyer.

If you are interested in learning more about my co-owenership program or would like to know the benefits, let me know. This is only an option for my locally placed female dogs.
