All our dogs are beloved pets and are brought up in the house with us. We do not have kennels and all puppies are reared in the house, are loved, cared for and well socialised before they go to their new homes.
If you can, visit the breeder more than once and if you are not happy with anything do not buy the puppy.
Always ask to see the mother and remember, that you get what you pay for. If the puppies are excessively cheaper than they should be, then BEWARE.
Puppy farms are like factory farms where dogs are bred purely for profit. The dogs are normally bred too often, many are unhealthy, and often live in unbearably poor conditions. The puppies are generally removed from their mothers far too early and sent by rail or van to ‘dealers’ or pet shops in the towns to satisfy the public’s demands. Many are severely traumatised by the transition, and some do not make it alive. Do not buy a puppy or a dog from these sources, as they will have had the worst possible start in life, and are far more likely to have health and temperament problems.
‘Dealers’ are agents for puppy farms. They buy puppies and sell them on, advertising them in newspapers and magazines, often masquerading as breeders. If an advert lists more than one breed of puppy for sale, then the person placing it is probably a dealer (but not always). Ask if you can see the mother with the puppies, and if they make an excuse about why the mother cannot be seen, do not buy a puppy from them. Never buy a dog from the back of a van at a motorway service station or from a car park, or have a puppy delivered to you, as this is how many dealers operate.
Please do your research before buying a puppy and do not rush into a decision.
