Disclaimer (a note for users): It is also important to note that identifying the “top” breeders is subjective and can depend on factors such as the quality of their breeding program, their reputation, and the opinions of their clients. However, you can find a list of recognized dog breeders in India by visiting the website of the Kennel Club of India (KCI) or the Indian National Kennel Club (INKC). Additionally, it is recommended to conduct research and read reviews before choosing a breeder to ensure that they follow ethical breeding practices and prioritize the welfare of their dogs.

Finding a Responsible Breeder for Your Puppy: Key Steps to Ensure a Healthy Companion

The Importance of Choosing a Good Breeder

• A responsible breeder plays a crucial role in ensuring you get a happy, healthy dog that lives a long life.
• Quick and instant puppy purchases may indicate a breeder’s questionable practices, raising concerns about the puppies’ health and well-being.
• Conducting thorough research to find a reputable breeder is essential.

The Consequences of Insufficient Research

• According to our recent survey:
  • 20% of puppy buyers do not conduct any research before purchasing.
  • 36% spend 20 minutes or less finding a place to get their dog.
  • Puppies bought in 20 minutes or less are three times more likely to experience illness, ongoing veterinary treatment, or death within the first six months, compared to those chosen with more time.

The Importance of a Good Breeder

• While many dog breeders prioritize producing healthy puppies, some prioritize profit over the animals’ well-being, maintaining substandard conditions.
• Choosing a good breeder ensures a higher chance of obtaining a healthy puppy and supports responsible breeding practices.

Tips for Finding the Right Breeder

• Consider buying from an assured breeder, such as The Kennel Club Assured Breeders:
  • Assured breeders adhere to good breeding practices and undergo regular inspections.
  • Owners who purchase from assured breeders spend approximately 20% less on veterinary bills throughout their dog’s lifetime.
  • Assured breeders comply with breed-specific health screening, maintain high welfare standards, and provide pre- and post-sales support.
  • Applicants to the scheme undergo initial and subsequent assessments to ensure compliance with welfare standards.
  • The Kennel Club’s Find a Puppy service displays assured breeders with a logo for easy identification.

Protecting Against Puppy Farmers

• Identifying signs of a bad breeder is crucial:
  • Purchasing from an irresponsible breeder can significantly impact your dog’s long-term health and happiness.
• Avoid puppy farmers by following the steps mentioned above and choosing reputable breeders committed to animal welfare.
