Common Questions to Ask your Dog Breeder
Buying from a reputable breeder is the best way to end up with a healthy, well-adjusted puppy. A trustworthy breeder should be happy to answer questions about their breeding practices, the puppy’s health history, and how the litter has been raised and socialised.
Where possible, ask to meet at least the mother. Spend a few minutes assessing her temperament — she should be relaxed and comfortable around people. If the whole litter is available, observe how each puppy interacts, moves, and responds to being handled. The property itself should be clean, safe, and free of any strong odours.
Ask if the puppies have been exposed to sounds of the household, different surfaces to walk on, and if they have been handled from an early age by good breeders who begin to train the puppies for the bathroom habits before they are given to their new homes.
Many puppies for sale Gold Coast carry the risk of inherited health conditions. Ask for evidence of relevant health testing or clearances for the parent dogs, along with any available veterinary records.
Knowing the puppy’s current diet will help the puppy transition smoothly into its new home. A good breeder will also be able to advise on feeding schedules as the puppy grows.
A pup should be getting its first vaccination between 6-8 weeks, and its second round between 10-12 weeks. You should be able to confirm with the seller what vaccinations he/she has already received, when the next round is due, and whether the pup has been examined by a vet.
A responsible breeder should be willing to provide documentation of the puppy’s health history, vaccinations, and microchip details, as well as a health guarantee for the puppy.
