Shelters, Rescues, or Breeders? Which Are Right for You?

Are you looking for the perfect companion? Maybe a large dog that loves fetch and would be a great jogging partner? Possibly you are looking for a small lap companion that loves car rides, or maybe even a playmate for your children? No matter how you look at it, getting a dog is a serious task. After all you are choosing a new member of the family, so you want to make sure you make the right choice!

When getting a new dog or puppy, it's always important to consider where to get the animal. It's also important to remember that you have a few choices. There are several places and opportunities for adopting dogs. Here are a few that will hopefully help you to make the best decision possible for your family!

Before even considering where to get your dog, it's most important to research breeds and find out which one is the right one for you. While for some a purebred Poodle or Golden Retriever might be the right choice, others may decide that a mixed breed is right. This is the most crucial decision for your family to make, and taking as much time as needed to do so is just fine!

  1. Breeders. Purchasing a dog from a breeder is a great way to obtain a dog, but there are several things to consider when doing so. Unfortunately in today’s day and age, some people choose to breed dogs only for a profit, rather than to better the breed and create amazing family pets. This is where researching the breeder is important; it will help you to avoid puppy mills.

    Going to a breeder is one of the best ways to obtain a purebred dog. Once you find a few breeders, be sure to ask as many questions as possible. Ask them if this is their first litter, ask to see the parents, ask about first shots, and health of the parents and previous litters, and above all go with your instincts. There is nothing wrong with asking to see where to puppies were raised, whether they are good with children and other animals, and if they are willing to take the puppy back if it does not work for your family.

    All good breeders will have the puppies' health checked, as well as the parents'. A good breeder will never hesitate to let you see the parents of the litter. If they do hesitate, it is a red flag. And a good breeder will also ask you questions, because good breeders have a desire to secure proper homes for their dogs. Choosing to get a dog from a breeder can cost you anywhere from $200 to $1000 for a good quality puppy!
