Things to be Careful Of

Puppy Scammers are real.

Pet Store's

Please don't buy puppies from pet stores. The puppies don't come from breeders who care about the dog's wellbeing or health testing. The links below explain what a puppy mill is and how they treat the dogs.

Contracts

It is very important that you have a contract when you buy a puppy. It protects buyer and breeder. You also know where the breeder stands, what they will replace and how honorable they will be on health defects.
