DO

[/vc_column_text][vc_separator style=”dotted” paddingtop=”5″ paddingbottom=”0″][vc_column_text][checklist icon=”fa-check ” font_size=”13″]

  • Always go to a reliable and reputable Kennel Club Registered Breeder.
  • Ask to see the puppy’s mother and if possible the father, if that’s not possible then at least further details.
  • See the puppy in its breeding environment and ask to look at the kennelling conditions if they were not raised within the breeder’s house. If you suspect the conditions are not right, then do not buy the puppy.
  • Ask to see the relevant health test certificates for the puppy’s parents
  • Be prepared to be put on a waiting list – a healthy puppy is well-worth waiting for.
  • Ask if you can return the puppy if things don’t work out. Responsible and reputable breeders will always say yes.
  • Be suspicious of a breeder selling several different breeds, unless you are sure of their credentials.
  • Report your concerns to the relevant authority if you suspect the breeder is a puppy farmer

DON’T

[/vc_column_text][vc_separator style=”dotted” paddingtop=”5″ paddingbottom=”0″][vc_column_text][checklist icon=”fa-times” font_size=”13″]

  • Buy a puppy from a pet shop.
  • Pick your puppy up from a ‘neutral location’ such as a car park or motorway service station.
  • Buy a puppy because you feel like you’re rescuing it. You’ll only be making space available for another poorly pup to fill and condemning further puppies to a miserable life.
  • Be fooled by a Kennel Club pedigree certificate. These are often faked by puppy farmers who are already operating illegally and have no qualms about forging paperwork. The majority of puppy farmers will not register their litters with the Kennel Club. If in doubt check with the Kennel Club.
  • Tell the relevant authorities
  • Local Councils, animal health officers and the police have the power to enforce the law. If you suspect somebody is a puppy farmer report them to the RSPCA, the police, or your Local Authority.

The Kennel Club would never knowingly register puppies from a puppy farmer and will tell the relevant authorities to try and ensure that the person is brought to book.[/vc_message][/vc_column][/vc_row]
