I've updated the OP post to clarify, I'm not against contracts, I'm just not fond of a certain condition where the breeder can request the dog be returned for breeding. So if a contract didn't have that condition, I would be fine with it. I also have no plans to breed.

Yes brightstar explains it perfectly, since I'm after a female pup as well, which is why I'd rather not purchase a pup with those kind of conditions placed in the contract, since it is more or less co-ownership.

Thanks, I should elaborate, I mean contracts such as breeding contracts, I don't mind contracts like bi-annual checkups or just regular updates. Breeding contracts make me feel more or less like the dog isn't truly mine, since I have to bring the dog back to breeder for them to use as breeding stock. Contracts solely for the well being of the pup, I'm completely fine with

So after 2 years of juggling the idea of raising a Rottweiler, as well as educating myself about the breed, I'm finally ready now. In the past I've adopted dogs that had aggression issues, which I rectified and it's definitely a good feeling having a previously aggressive dog warm up to you, but now instead of adopting, I think its time I raise a puppy :D So can anyone recommend me a Rottweiler breeder in Victoria or one that's willing to transport interstate, preferably a breeder without a contract that requires me to return the female pup to the breeder for breeding
