FAQ
The law (SB 876 signed by Governor Abbot in May of this year) will require anyone that both owns 5 or more intact females and is engaged in the business of breeding those dogs for sale to secure a state license.
It is illegal to sell, trade, barter, or give pets away without a permit, regardless of where you're trying to sell them. If you want to sell your pet, please apply for a Litter Permit, as well as a Seller's Permit.
The contract between the buyer and the breeder governs the breeding rights of a dog purchased with AKC registration. If the contract stipulates restrictions on breeding, the buyer is legally bound to adhere to them. Breeding without permission could constitute a breach of contract and may result in legal consequences.
Most breeders that are even somewhat reputable will require you to sign some sort of contract/document up front along with the deposit. If they insist that they won't have you sign a contract, that's a big red flag.
The contract should include information on the dog's health, vaccination history, and any microchip information. It should also specify what is included in the sale (such as food, toys, and veterinary care). Most importantly, it should state what will happen if the dog is ever returned to the breeder.
In summary, while obtaining breeding rights for an AKC registered dog is feasible, it involves navigating registration status, breeder policies, health testing, and legal obligations. If you're serious about breeding, it's essential to educate yourself and communicate openly with the breeder.
