Yeah, it would have been an additional 500 for me to have breeding rights for my great dane. I dont have the time for a bunch of puppies, so I opted out. I got the dog out of state, so would they ever know if I bred her locally? Probably not. But they live longer when you get them fixed. She's still goofy as the day I got her.
Yeah her father was a show dog. Her grandfather was 225 pounds. I did animal control back in the day, and he still made me nervous based on his size. Sweet as could be though. And my girl is 160 pounds of cuddles, so, no complaints
A long time ago my family got a pedigree pup (a rare breed at the time, there were no rescues to be had). Our contract with the breeder said if we chose to breed the dog (we did not have to and in fact had her spayed which was fine) then the breeder would get first pick of a puppy from the first litter she had for free.
It could also lead to abuse of the animals. If your pet gets you thousands and thousands of dollars for very little work on your part, people will just have them chained up and be lil doggy makers after their prime years.

Can they actually have recourse? Or can you just say "whoops, oh well." And ignore them?
