So, we want a dog.......

[Pam O]

Ooooooo that's a very big tar brush you have there Hissie <<<<slides out soapbox>>> I am a dog breeder, I breed a litter when either I want something for myself and/or I have a waiting list of puppy buyers. My puppies are thoughtfully bred from parents who have had £££££ spent on taking them to specialists and making sure that they do not suffer from conditions that they might pass onto the puppies, the puppies are born in the house and raised with all the noises of a normal household (minus kids, more on that later) they and their mother are fed on the highest quality food available, the litter is taken at 6 to 8 weeks old to specialists who then test them to make sure that they do not have any inherited or otherwise conditions, they are also examined by my own vet for more everyday conditions. I do rent a crowd as I dont have kids of my own so friends kids are roped in to come round and play with the pups as much as possible. The homes they go to are thoroughly vetted and visited if possible by either myself or friends around the country. I insist that the potential owners visit the pups along with any kids in the household, the pups are tattooed in their ear and that number stays in my name in case they end up as strays later in life. Unless being sold to a fellow and trusted dog showing friend they are all sold as PETS, they go with a contract and have their kennel club papers endorsed with restrictions. I have imported a bitch all the way from Israel to get new blood in my breeding, I have used imported dogs others own in my breeding and at great expense I will be importing sperm from a dog in Finland for my next litter. I could just go to any old dog in the UK but I breed to improve my breed not to make money. My litters are born out of blood sweat and a lot of tears sometimes and I know a whole host of other breeders who are the same so please forgive us if we get on our high horse when we are branded exactly the same as some low life puppy farming scum who breed their bitches to death and sells sick pups to unsuspecting members of the public, and don't even get me started on the designer breeds, hybrid vigor my a*se, printing money more like.
The rules are simple for puppy buyers.....
If the pups are kept in awful conditions ....walk away and report to local council
If the breeder has umpteen different breeds ...walk away and report to local council
If you can't see the mother of the litter........see above
If the pup looks sick or has a shitty bum running eyes.....you get the picture. Sadly people think they are doing the sick pup a favour getting it out of there, but they are just making room for the next over bred bitches litter and so it goes on....there are a lot of us good breeders out there, people just need to look for us and do their homework ask questions and be prepared to walk away if they are not happy....
