Why buying a puppy from a breeder is a smart move

In a gallant effort to save all puppies and kittens from euthanization in this country, it is important, now more than ever to look to shelters and rescue centers for your forever friend. However, because of this campaign, it is now relevant and extremely important to get pets from reputable breeders as well. Why? Because specific breeds are at risk of extinction and if we can’t keep purebreds going, they will be lost forever.

It’s a double-edged sword when we talk about shelters versus breeders and we’re about to explain why both are important to the future of our pets.

Rescue

Of course, it is fair to say that all dogs deserve a fighting chance and a good home to spend their lives in. Everyone should experience the joy of owning a dog from a shelter. They need good homes and lots of love just as much as any dog. When you go to a shelter, you don’t have a choice of what is there. But you just may find that there is a dog already there who is ready to go home with you. And unequivocally you should experience this love if you can. Rescue dogs can be great companions and shelters even hold purebreds if you look hard enough.

Breeders

A breeder’s goal is to not only protect a breed from extinction but also to improve upon the previous generation of a particular breed so the puppies your children and grandchildren live with and love will be even more wonderful than your companion is right now. This puppy will become someone who will be there for you through everything, no matter what. With a purebred dog, you are more likely to have a pet with an even temperament and certain characteristics that you won’t find in a dog of mixed breeds.

Breeders have been working for centuries to perfect particular breeds of dog and with each new litter, comes stronger, healthier and better-bred dogs for you and your family to love and enjoy now and for future generations. Without breeders, these dogs will become extinct and for animals that have been around for centuries, this is devastating. Just as with any species, losing any of these breeds is a loss for the world.

In the end, both options for finding your next pet are extremely important. Both avenues keep our beloved pets in the spotlight and making all of these amazing dogs adoptable is just better for our future with pets.
