 Puppy cannot be bred and must be spayed or neutered by 16 months , The reason we give a little more time to spay or neuter is because there are new studies that spay and neutering too early causes problems with their bone growth , and can cause arthritis in later years , they need  those hormones for their proper bone growth , so please make sure they are kept inside when in heat , you are responsible to make sure your puppy does not get pregnant or this entire guarantee is nil and void , you will also be required to pay us a 2000 dollar fee .We are very serious about this ..We do not give breeding rights .If these requirements are not followed this guarantee is nil and void . Buyer agrees to have dog spayed or neutered by 16 months and will provide Elizabeth Melcher with a spay or neuter certificate signed by the licensed Veterinarian that performed the surgery , Failure to do so will result in buyers owing Lake Oswego Labs 2,000 " Breeding Rights " fee before the dog is 17 months of age .
