The good of the breed comes before any personal benefit

A breeder is responsible for all puppies he produces for their entire lives. An owner is responsible to ensure that any dog he can no longer keep is placed in an appropriate home and the breeder of the dog is notified. However, if the owner cannot or will not take care of the animal any longer or abandons it, the breeder must make every effort to secure a new home for it.

Breeders will promote and encourage the spaying and neutering of pet quality Cresteds and use the Limited Registration for the not be shown, not to be bred Cresteds.
