Canines are often said to be man's best friend, deciding to own a dog, no matter what size, takes a lot of responsibility.

There are certain things you have to do such as feeding it, grooming, making sure it's healthy, and doesn't get overweight, cleaning up after it, cleaning it, and making sure that you give it lots of love.

There are quite a few places that you can get a dog such as the pet store, a breeder, or the kennel. Don't always just disregard the kennel, they do have great dogs there, they are just dogs that have been abandoned and need lots of love.

If you want a purebred dog though, you need to find a breeder who has a good reputation to get the results you want.

Now, the right type of breeder and the breed of the dog you want go hand in hand. Breeders that are professional don't breed that often, and usually only do when a pair of purebreds are found that are healthy and temperament that will ensure the birth of healthy puppies.

Breeders also must have enough homes for the amount of offspring that will be birthed before they breed, and they usually have to be evaluated and appropriate.

Now if you know what type of breeder you need, then you should do some research by asking people that have used breeders, and talking to a number of breeders as feasible before make deciding who you are going to have breed the dog you want.

There are a lot of types of breeders in the world, and if you know which is the best, and understand that things can go wrong; if you can understand that then it will greatly influence the type of puppy that will be produced.

Truly, the ideal breeder would have the pair of canines tested for every type of disease and have all the information that has to do with the pair's lineage and family's health records on file. Even if the breeder mentions no issue in the history of the two dogs, you still need to ask just to be sure.

This shows the breeder that you truly have an interest in the parents of your future puppy, and that you want the best for it.

If you wish, you can also ask people who have also been given puppies of the pair to see if there were any problems. If you want a dog, then you need to have a fenced in, or secure yard and attend classes so that you are familiar with some of the problems and challenges you might face as a new puppy owner.

Breeders that have a good reputation and know what they are doing will have requirements that you have to meet before passing as a feasible dog owner.

These requirements are usually stated in the written contracts as with a requirement having to do with spaying or neutering which lowers the amount of registration of the puppies. This is all done so that there isn't an overpopulation issue, and for the protection of you, the owner.

The requirements that the breeder needs are not meant to delay producing, and giving you a dog, but to ensure that you are aware of what can and will happen as a dog owner and the responsibilities that go with it as well as make sure that the offspring will be going to a good home.

This is the thing that separates the breeders into two types; the ones that actually care about the health and well being of the dogs, and the breeders that are just in it to earn money. The first type is the breeder that you want.

Some of the most important factors in selecting a good breeder besides the food, and health attention given are the state of the father after the birth of the offspring and how well the puppies are cared for.

To check on the puppies and how they are being treated after birth, you should choose a breeder that is close by so that you can go see how the puppies are doing once in a while, and make sure that there aren't any problems.
