Buying from a Reputable Breeder Means Your Puppy Will Be a Happier, Healthier, and More Rounded Dog
You’ve finally decided it’s time to hear the pitter-patter of little paws in your home. If you have already decided on a specific breed, your next step will be to choose where you get your puppy. Backyard breeders and puppy mills are everywhere, so you have to be careful where you get your new furry friend. When you get your puppy from a reputable breeder, there are many fantastic benefits for you and your pup.
Get Your Pup from the Experts
When you get a puppy from a reputable dog breeder, you can rest assured you’re getting a puppy from someone who has extensive knowledge of the breed you have chosen. Most reputable breeders specialize in one or two breeds, and they know almost everything about them. So, if you have questions over the course of your new puppy’s life, you always have an expert you can call.
Reputable breeders will also be able to make recommendations for you regarding the best food and veterinary care for your pup. They can tell you what to expect over the coming months for potty training, obedience training, and a variety of other characteristics that only a breed expert would know.
Socialization is Key
If you’re buying from a responsible breeder, your puppy will already be socialized. Good breeders begin socializing their puppies as soon as they open their eyes. New pups will have a safe and stimulating environment and will be exposed to other animals and people. This means your puppy will already have some good social skills and will be more comfortable around new faces.
Puppies are brand new to the world when they are born, and it’s important that they become used to the touch and smell of different people while they are young. Buying a puppy from a reputable breeder ensures you get a small bundle of joy with a solid temperament. Best of all, most breeders have an idea of the personality of each of their pups, so they will be able to help you choose a puppy that will be the perfect fit for your family.
Reputable Breeders Produce Healthy Puppies
Quite possibly the biggest advantage of buying your puppy from a reputable breeder are the health benefits to your new furry friend. Reputable breeders carefully choose which dogs should mate to preserve specific desirable characteristics. You will be provided with your pup’s ancestry and you will be given the option to register your puppy. They also ensure your pup is free of any genetic issues, which means less expensive vet bills in the long run.
In addition to knowing your puppy’s lineage, you will also be able to visit a reputable breeder’s facility. You can see where the dog parents are housed and where the puppies spend the first two months of their lives. Reputable breeders will want you to see these environments so you can gain a good understanding of what your puppy will look like when it grows up and to prove they are taking excellent care of the parents and puppies alike.
