Dog Breeders Coming Soon

Breeders are the place to look for a purebred dog, as well as “designer” mixed breeds, such as Labradoodles (Labrador Retriever/Poodle mix).

Responsible breeders will encourage you to visit their facilities – often a home – to meet and interact with their dogs. Reputable breeders want to make sure that their animals are a good match with the people purchasing them and that they will be living in a healthy, loving environment.

Advantages: You’ll get to meet the parents of the puppy, and get a health guarantee, instructions for care and follow-up advice on training and behavior problems.

Disadvantages: Can be costly.

Beware if animals are confined to cages, conditions are unsanitary, and many different breeds are produced, the breeder may not be reputable.
