Non-Breeding Agreement. The Purchaser agrees that the Puppy is being sold as a companion animal (Pet) and not for breeding purposes. The Purchaser agrees to have the Puppy spayed/neutered between the ages of 8 months to 18 months and as recommended or advised by a licensed Veterinarian.
Summary: Under the Texas Dog or Cat Breeders Act, a person may not act as a dog or cat breeder without a license. Facilities must be inspected at least once every 18-months, and inspectors must notify the law enforcement if they discover evidence of animal cruelty or neglect.

If you're advertising puppies for sale, making a profit from breeding dogs, breeding 3 or more litters a year and selling even 1 puppy, then you need a dog breeding license by law. If you breed without a license you run the risk of 6 months imprisonment or an unlimited fine. It's definitely not worth the risk!
