Our Boys

GENERALBREEDING INFORMATION

We are very selective when using our boys with outside females. 

Your female MUST have a negative Brucellosis test done no later than 10 days before breeding, no exceptions! This can be done at your local vet. Females must also be non-dilute, and OFA certified for hips and elbows. A copy of your dogs pedigree is also required prior to breeding. 

There is NO COST to board your female at our place, as long as you bring her own food.

We feed and recommend Black Gold dog food. .If you would like us to use our food, there will be a $5 per day charge.

We expect you to pick your dog up when the mating's are completed. Dogs left in our care more than 3 days past the end of mating will be charged board at the rate of $20 per day.

If your female arrives with external parasites, she will be given a flea/tick bath and you will be charged a grooming fee of $50.00. It is best if you give her a bath at home prior to mating, and if parasites are a problem in your area, use a product like BioSpot or Frontline PRIOR to mating.

All Stud Service fees must be paid in full prior to your Stud Service being provided. All other costs must be paid in full when the female is picked up (food, grooming, any testing fees).

Absolutely no litter applications will be signed without payment in full.

We RARELY provide stud service for "pick of the litter", as we keep a full compliment of dogs in our own kennel.

No stud service will be provided without a written, signed stud contract.

BREEDING CONTRACT for STUD Service at IRELAND FARMS.

We, the undersigned, have agreed to breed

______________________________________________, AKC #__________________ to________________________________________________, AKC #__________________ , UKC # _____________________

with the following conditions:

1. The dogs: The dog owners shall supply each other with copies of AKC registrations, and a three generation pedigree.

2. The breeding: If the breeding is to be natural.

3. Boarding the female during the breeding time:

Cost: If the female is boarded with the stud dog owner for the breeding, no fee will be charged as long as the females owners supply the food. If they do not, the fee for boarding will be $5 per day. At the completion of breeding time, this fee will increase to $20 (with food supplied by females owner) OR $25 per day (stud dog owner supplies the food).

Medical care: The females owner assumes all costs incurred for any veterinary procedures and or reproductive services or medical treatment required for the female while she is in the care of the Ireland Farms to fulfill this contract.

4. Stud Fee: The stud fee is $1000, or pick of the litter. The choice is up to the stud owner. The females owner shall pay a $500.00 nonrefundable service fee before the mating takes place with the balance of $500.00 due before the AKC and/or UKC litter registration is signed by the stud dog owner. There is no free return mating if the female is not in whelp. 

6. Definition of a litter: The female owner must notify the stud dog owner when the litter is born. A litter consists of two puppies that live at least 48 hours. If only one puppy is born and lives past 48 hours, the stud dog owner will sign the AKC/UKC litter papers for that one puppy with no further fee due (this means that if there is only one puppy living past 48 hours, the total stud fee is $500

.

7. Puppy with defects: Any puppy born with genetic or congenital defects must be humanely euthanized by a licensed veterinarian (example is cleft palate).

8. No pregnancy: If the female is not pregnant, this should be confirmed by x-rays immediately prior to the due date for the litter. (Often a litter of 1 or 2 pups will not make a female appear pregnant. X-rays very late in the pregnancy will not harm the pups.) If the female is not pregnant and the owners elect for her to return on her next cycle to one of the Irelands stud dogs, the nonrefundable service fee on the subsequent mating will be reduced by 50% to $250.00. The remainder of stud fee will not be reduced.

7. Any additional or special agreements: Conditions or provisions must be noted at the end of this form and signed by both parties.
