Socialization also remains a top priority for a reputable dog breeder as they understand the importance of preparing their pups for life in their new homes. Knowledgeable breeding involves not only understanding the individual strengths and weaknesses of each parent but also selecting suitable matches to produce healthy and happy puppies.
Moreover, a reputable dog breeder exhibits a lifetime commitment to each and every one of their dogs, placing them in clean and safe environments. They do not separate their puppies from their mothers too early, allowing them to develop important social and emotional skills.
Breeding limits are also introduced to protect the breeding dogs and ensure they live a comfortable and fulfilling life. Proper documentation including health and lineage records, as well as an ongoing commitment to continuous learning and improving their breeding program, are also essential for a responsible breeder.
It’s important to note, however, that adopting a dog from a shelter or rescue organization is always a great option. Not only are you giving a deserving dog a second chance at life, but you’re also supporting a great cause.
Remember, a reputable and responsible dog breeder always prioritizes ethical practices, health screening, socialization, knowledgeable breeding, a lifetime commitment, a clean and safe environment, no early separation, breeding limits, proper documentation, and continuous learning.
Parent and puppy health is our number one priority. Breeding dogs are genetically health tested for appropriate issues. In addition to prioritizing health, cleanliness is one of our daily goals.
All puppies are raised in my home, and will be socialized with dogs and people before leaving no earlier than age 8 weeks.
You will receive documentation of vaccines and parasite treatments given, as well as food samples and directions on feeding. The puppies will have had a health exam, and the vet information will be given to you at pickup.
Registration papers and microchip information will also be provided, and copies kept here.
I continue to participate in seminars, breeder consults, and vet consults to stay up to date on the best ways to raise healthy puppies.
Our adults receive regular health care, as well as in home attention and play. Females are normally retired and rehomed into appropriate pet homes at the end of their breeding careers. Males are sometimes retired to pet homes also.
We take puppies back anytime through their lifetime if you are unable to care for them, and or can’t find an appropriate home.
