How to find a responsible dog breeder

Why good old rescue dogs make great pets, some people want the predictability, characteristics, and cache of a particular breed. Where do you go to get a good purebred dog? A breeder, of course. Don’t choose just any breeder, however. It’s as important to choose the right breeder as it is to choose the right dog. When you are looking for Weimaraner or Vizsla puppies for sale, White River Kennels has you covered. Read on to find out why we are one of the best breeders.

The best tips you can get to finding a good breeder is to ask around. Ask your veterinarian, groomers, boarding kennels and other pet owners who the reputable breeders for a specific breed are. You can also try the local kennel club for that particular breed. Most breeds have a kennel club chapter.

Do your homework and make sure you research the breed you are interested in. Talk to the breeder and visit their website. Get an idea of how their facilities operate. White River Kennels is a family owned and operated kennel. Our dogs live with us which means they get the attention they need while living in a clean, safe environment. Avoid breeders who have large numbers of dogs and puppies kept in kennels or runs. Ask to see photos of the whole litter and at least one of the parents. They should look healthy and well fed. The puppies should be sociable and outgoing.

It is important to ask a lot of questions. You should be very knowledgeable about the breed. The breeder should know all the basics about the breed and should be able to answer all your questions pertaining to it. The breeder may ask questions about you, your lifestyle and your family situation. Good breeders want to make sure their animals are placed in loving, responsible homes.

A good breeder will be concerned about the animal for its lifetime not just when it leaves their care. Expect a good breeder to follow up on how the dog is doing. They will continue to answer questions, even after you’ve taken the dog home. Another sign of a good breeder is that they will keep the puppies unless they are at least 6 weeks old although most wait 8-12 weeks. They will also provide any references if you ask, including a veterinary reference. They should also be able to provide all the needed information to register your dog with a breed club like the American Kennel Club. They will also provide information about raising, training, feeding and proper veterinary care for your pup.
