    I think that is the way it should be.
    It can be a fag, but it is also rather sweet when little Fido gets brought to visit his relatives on his tenth birthday. The majority of puppies bred by hobby breeders go as pets, and it is only by keeping in touch with them that we can know whether there are any health or temperamental problems in our lines.
    Most of my puppies went to neighbours or contacts through work, so there was already a connection. For the others, I used to ring during the week after the puppy left, asking how the puppy had settled, and reminding them of the written request to contact me if they had any problems at all. I would check again when the puppy started to get out and about, but would then leave it to the new owner to decide how much contact. A Christmas card with a baby photo would usually provoke a response though.
