Tips For Selecting The Right Standard Poodle Breeder

By Steven Davis


There are many advantages associated with dog rescuing. Nonetheless, if you are looking to match the needs of your family to the characteristics and traits of the dog, going in for purebred puppies is a superior move. Each breed was bred to fit a specific set of tasks. You may, therefore, want to find a standard poodle breeder for your next puppy purchase. Here are useful tips to consider.

It does not matter whether you have already set your mind on a specific breed or are still looking for one. Dog shows will provide the perfect opportunity to meet different breeds. You will be in a position to assess the temperament of the dog in an environment full of stress. It might also give you insights into how the dog will turn out when introduced to the family as a puppy.

Almost anyone can choose to start breeding dogs, as long as they can access the parent dogs. However, this does not make them the right persons to purchase from. In that regard, check to see whether they have a well-managed website. The site should contain information pointing to their activities in the canine community. If they are not active in the dog breeding industry, go to the next one.

You do not only want someone who is active in the industry but one who can assure you of the health status of their puppies. Whenever breeders have a litter of puppies, they will be sure to display health clearances on their websites. Anyone not displaying that information is hiding something. Be keen on scores for hip and elbow clearances for the parents. Screening is important before breeding takes place, regardless of the breed.

It has become common practice for different industry players to register with associations and umbrella organizations in their industry. In this case, you should be making sure all prospective dog breeders are registered members of associations with a national scope. It helps to give assurance the breeders are following standard practices in offering purebred puppies. Be sure to rule out those without any membership affiliations.

Take time to contact the organization they are affiliated to find out if any complaints have been lodged against them. Breeders who have too many complains from customers cannot be trusted to sell you the kind of puppy suitable to your family needs. Chances are you will end up with several complains just like other customers. In essence, you will want to avoid breeders with low ratings.

Referrals are a great way of finding reliable breeders in your area. There might be other dog owners with similar breeds to the one you need. Talk to them to find out where they bought their puppies. You want to know whether they were satisfied with the puppy they bought. Be sure to ask whether the puppy had any health complications at the time of purchase.

There are a number of other red flags to watch out for when selecting different breeders. If they display one or two breeds on their site and claim to breed more than the displayed breeds, it raises a lot of questions. The right breeder will show the progeny of their breeding programs.
