When discussing purchasing a puppy from an accountable breeder you should expect a thorough evaluation process.
Most accountable breeders have waiting lists so you may be required to wait several months or a year or more to bring home a puppy.
Most accountable breeders are entrenched in activities revolving around their dogs and their breeds, demonstrating how passionate they are.
Breeders have extensive knowledge about their breeds and their wisdom can be extremely helpful to their puppy families.
Many accountable breeders use sires and dams from outside of Canada to help strengthen and improve the genetic diversity in their breed. Find out if your breeder used a dam or sire from outside of Canada, or if the puppies are being imported to Canada. Also, learn more about Canada’s dog import regulations and CFIA’s role in regulating imports and more.
