I support this opinion. All Polish breeders I know, offer a contract! E.g. Margo asks an owner to sign a 3-page agreement where the rights of the pup/dog are very well protected! The "z Peronówki" dog must be X-rayed when adult, and should obtain breeding rights in congruence with local law by the time it is 3 years old (even if not used for breeding!). It cannot be re-sold without the agreement of the breeder and if anything goes wrong the breeder should be informed about it asap under a penalty clause.
It's another question whether the owners obey the contracts or not
Unfortuantely, our courts do not treat breaking breeding contracts too seriously and it'd take ages by the time the case appeared.
So it's more a matter of honour/decendcy to fulfil the requirements, than a legal issue.
