how to find a Good Dog Breeder
Have you ever bought a car that was an ongoing problem - always breaking down? Faults that just never seem to get fixed or keep coming back as if by some sort of dark magic? Facing problem after problem robs you of the pleasure of enjoying your new car. Regrettably, there are dogs that are stinkers, too (and I don’t just mean the farts they do!).
A dog with ongoing ill health for example can lead to heartache and an empty bank account. A good dog breeder will stand behind health guarantees and do everything in their ability to set affairs right if you end up with a dog that has a difficult health defect.
There are a few types of dog breeders you need to be aware of. The first type is a type who shows dogs and works hard to uphold the breed quality. The puppies this breeder produces will often be more expensive than other puppies, but there are several advantages to buying one. These breeders test their dogs for common genetic diseases and they only breed their best dogs, because they are breeding dogs to acquire a new generation of champions. This means that the resulting puppies that are not show quality are usually still quite nice.
The 2d type of dog breeder is often called a backyard breeder. These breeders seldom show dogs and usually have a litter of puppies just because they want other people to have a dog just like theirs. Unfortunately, few backyard breeders test for diseases or know how to look for traits that match the breed standard.
The last type of dog breeder is frequently called a puppy mill breeder. These breeders have several different breeds of dogs and frequently breed their females until the dogs become decrepit and die. Puppies are frequently very poor examples of the breed and may have genetic health problems as well as diseases such as Kennel Cough.
Obviously, you want to find a good dog breeder. However, knowing the importance of finding a good dog breeder does not always make it easy to locate one. Luckily, if you look for signs of an expert breeder and ask the breeder the right questions, you should be able to decide if you’ve found a good breeder.
