Breeders have extensive knowledge about their breeds and their wisdom can be extremely helpful to their puppy families.
At a minimum, your puppy should come home with their first set of vaccinations, vet records and a unique identifier such as a microchip.
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.
One of a breeder’s primary goals should be to breed healthy, balanced and sound puppies. One of the ways to achieve this is through health and genetic testing.
When discussing purchasing a puppy from an accountable breeder you should expect a thorough evaluation process.
