Finding Appropriate Breeders

Оглавление

There are certain U.S. Humane Society recommendations that can help you find an appropriate breeder to adopt your dog or puppy from. It is important to use your instincts when purchasing from a breeder, if something does not seem right or you wouldn’t let your dog live the same way the breeder does, politely excuse yourself. The start of a puppy’s life will inevitably set the standard for their disposition and behavior for the rest of their life. A good breeder should also:

Demonstrate Knowledge - A good breeder should first of all be knowledgeable about the breed and how to take care of them appropriately. Ask basic questions that a good breeder would know and understand. A responsible breeder wants to inform you of everything you need to know to have a healthy, happy dog.

Provide References - Breeders should also keep track of other who have previously purchased from them, it is understandable if you ask them to provide a reference for you to contact about the dogs which are available. Additionally ask them to provide a veterinarian reference, so you can verify the medical care provided to any animal.

Family Members - A breeder who keeps their dogs as family members, rather than in kennels or dog runs is important. They should also not be afraid to show around the dogs sleep, eat, and play areas. It is necessary to understand the environment the dogs are used to and what conditions they are kept in.

Encourage Bonding - All breeders should encourage you and your family to visit more than once. Offering time to meet and play with the puppies is needed to create a bond with an animal, and find the perfect new pet for your entire family.

It is important to find and purchase your dog from a reputable breeder that can be trusted. A dog that is not from a reputable breeder can have diseases, is more likely to be aggressive, and may not be a pure bred. Dogs who are not purebreds are still trainable and are just as good of pets as those which carry only one breed of dog in their genes.
