Since the inquiring parties did not want their notes posted on our BLOG, we will respect
their wishes.
The answer is, you should avoid co-ownerships at all costs!
Contact the American Kennel Club and ask them about the rights and responsibilities of
co-owning registered dogs.
Consider it much the same as co-signing a note or putting another name on the title of
your car.
Most disputes that go all of the way to a court of law involve a co-ownership.
It always starts out well and when there is money changing hands and a new puppy involved
who could imagine the future issues.
All decisions of medical care, showing, breeding, must be equally decided by BOTH owners.
Either owner can keep the dog from the other owner if they wish and co-owners steal
custody back and forth all of the time.
If you must co-own, go to a lawyer and have a contract with the opening consideration,
the promised action of both co-owners, and then the closing of the contract that will involve
the dog to one owner.
Write in for death, illness, theft, and all other things that could lead to disputes.
Have not yet seen the dog worth co-owning!
