BREEDING PACT - F.L.G. - Quality +
It is proposed that you subscribe to a pact or agreement intended to promote breeding to improve the quality of puppies produced. This includes conducting pre-screening or health testing of brood stock prior to any breeding project.
It is also a matter of respecting a number of conditions in the conduct of its breeding. These are already laid down in the legal and regulatory provisions in force and which every farmer must respect. They are reinforced by conventional commitments, known as Quality +, presented in the pact submitted to you below.
Within the framework of this convention, the association undertakes to ensure the support and promotion of the listed dog kennels as well as the litters produced. And that’s on all the media she has. Notably on its website, general or specialized social networks, as well as any other online or print media.
Failure by the reference breeder to comply with the provisions agreed under a breeding pact - Quality +, will result, ipso facto, in the immediate suspension of the listing and the withdrawal of all communications from its breeding, promotions and other mailing lists where it could appear.
Repeated failure to comply with any of the agreed terms shall automatically result in the definitive termination of the agreement entered into.
