The following is a sample form of the conditions under which families make a deposit to wait for an available puppy. This agreement is intended to be active from the day of signing (with a deposit already made) to the day the puppy goes to its forever home (which is when the Adoption Contract is established). You can see in it both Echt K9 commitments as well as family responsibilities in this time when the importance of communication is at its highest.
