The Puppy Contract: a case study


Hannah Stenton, a 27-year-old customer experiences manager from Malton, north Yorkshire, has grown up with dogs and classes herself as an experienced dog owner. When she and her partner lost their 18-year-old Border Collie Tessa last year, they decided to look for a new puppy. That’s when a friend recommended they use The Puppy Contract as a helpful tool to ensure they get a happy, healthy puppy from a responsible breeder.


“I have grown up with dogs, so I was a little unsure about using The Puppy Contract at first,” Hannah says. “I thought to myself, why on earth would I need that? However, I decided to visit The Puppy Contract website to find out more, and I must say it proved to be really helpful even before I looked at the contract itself.
Hannah approached a Whippet breeder in Scarborough and says that using The Puppy Contract gave her the confidence that her puppy was coming from a responsible breeder.
Alfie the Whippet puppy is now six months old and is a happy, healthy and playful puppy. And Hannah adds that The Puppy Contract proved useful even after she brought Alfie home.
“The contract itself helped me to gather all the information I needed on my puppy and was a perfect way for me to keep everything from microchip details to the pedigree details in one place. It made registering Alfie at our local veterinary practice really easy as we had all his details in the Puppy Contract’s Information Pack. I would definitely recommend using The Puppy Contract, it gives you peace of mind that you’re buying a puppy from a caring and responsible breeder and that your new puppy will be happy and healthy.”
