An accountable breeder welcomes prospective puppy owners to visit them and their kennels, and will want to get to know you, your family, and your lifestyle.
Adding a new member to your family can be an exciting and patience-trying experience, but don’t let your anticipation of your new arrival let you forget that not all individuals selling dogs or puppies are accountable, reputable breeders.
At a minimum, your puppy should come home with their first set of vaccinations, vet records and a unique identifier such as a microchip.
Breeders have extensive knowledge about their breeds and their wisdom can be extremely helpful to their puppy families.
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.
