Finding a Dog Breeder
Summary
If you're looking to buy a purebred dog, finding a reputable breeder is essential. While a quick glance at the classified ads in your local newspaper might help, ensuring that the breeder is trustworthy and professional is crucial. Here are some tips to guide you in selecting a reliable breeder.
Ask for References
A reputable breeder should be able to provide references from previous clients who have purchased puppies or used their stud services. These references can give insights into their experiences. It's also helpful to choose a breeder recommended by someone you know. If a friend or family member had a positive experience, chances are you will too.
Prepare for Questions
Expect a good breeder to ask you as many questions as you have for them, if not more. They want to ensure their dogs go to suitable homes. Questions may include whether you have children, the size of your home or yard, and more. If a breeder isn't asking these questions, they might be more interested in the sale than the dog's well-being. A responsible breeder prioritizes the best interests of both the dog and the buyer.
Guarantees
A reputable breeder will have the puppies screened for potential health issues before selling them. However, some problems may not be evident until later. For instance, if a golden retriever pup is later found to have hip dysplasia, a good breeder should offer a refund without hesitation. While genetic defects like hip dysplasia can be minimized through selective breeding, they can occasionally appear even without a family history.
Other Sources
Apart from newspapers and online searches, you can find breeders through veterinarians, pet supply stores, and dog shows. Dog shows are particularly useful as attending breeders may showcase their dogs or watch the performance of dogs they previously bred and sold.
By following these guidelines, you can increase your chances of finding a reliable and responsible dog breeder.
