This Site |
Requires health testing on breeding dogs | NO | YES Health testing breeding dogs helps to assure that the puppy you buy will be less likely to have medical problems throughout his life. |
| Requires that breeders compete with their dogs | NO | YES Breeders who compete with their dogs in hunting trials, conformatin events, agility etc., are more involved in their breed and want to compare their dogs to others in the breed. |
| Requires breeders to sell pets on spay/neuter contracts. | NO | YES Breeders who require this aim to help control the pet population as well as preserve their lines by not allowing unplanned breedings. |
| Requires breeders take back dogs if owner cannot keep them. | NO | YES The breeder is responsible for the puppy for it's entire life- by always accepting them back into their care, it helps assure that rescue groups and humane shelters wont have to handle their dogs. |
| Requires all dogs are purebred. | NO | YES Though we do love mixed breeds, we do not condone the intentional breeding of them. The vast majority of those who breed mixed breeds are not testing for health issues and are simply producing puppies to make money. We will not list breeders of mixed breeds, but we WILL list rescue groups. |
| Screens breeders so that no puppymills, brokers, backyard breeders get listed. | NO | YES Our breeders are required to complete a long application and everything is approved manually- there are NO instant approvals. Our directory may not have as many listed as other sites, but that is due to the fact that we reject far more breeders than we list. A bad breeder cannot simply buy their way into our directory. Ethical breeders are listed free, bad breeders are not permitted. |
