Looking for a (Reputable) Breeder?

Finding a reputable breeder can be a bit scary these days! Impressive (sometimes religion-oriented) websites, breeders who ship puppies on certain days of the week every week, breeders who accept credit cards and make online sales - ALL of these are potential warning signs of big money-making puppy millers.

Before you make an investment in a puppy, check out our e-guide on how to identify a GOOD breeder and increase the chances that you will buy a healthy, well-adjusted puppy. The e-book includes a list of questions you should ask all the breeders you speak with, the potential warning signs of scamming websites, a shopping list, a list of regional club breeder referral contacts, AND a Breeder Comparison Chart you can print out and use as you interview various breeders.Click here to go to the Puppy Smart website...
