Why Breeders Want Updated Pictures and The Difference Between Puppies From Reputable Breeders

​

1. (Breeder Dogs) It starts where the breeder got there breeder dogs from. They will research pedigree and pictures of off spring as puppies and adults and there offspring if available to ensure the quality they are wanting to produce is there.

​

2. (Pairing) Pairing Is not only done by pedigree research especially if you are working with multiple candidates with the same lines, you have to look at the fault in each dog and see what one has the other is missing.

​

3.(Placed Puppies) Puppies placed both in pet homes as well as breeder homes are expected to turn out AMAZING as we hoped for. We would like updated pictures to ensure that we are achieving the quality we set out to produce and if puppies don't turn out right as adults, bad bites etc we need to know about that so we can adjust the pairing made on those lines.

​

4. (Bad Pairings) Those are totally normal when adding new lines and creating your own. If a breeder has a litter of puppies that doesn't turn out like expecting the litter will be sold as pets and a good breeder will not keep breeding that pair.the puppies sold as pets are placed for many reasons, from not within the breed standard size, off bite to genetic issues that in no way is life threatening. A good breeder will not place a hydro puppy or other major defect puppies Into any pet or breeder home.

​

5. (Difference in Registration) Akc and other reputable registrations keep Pedigrees on all dogs registered with them and others don't. You have a 95% chance of getting a pure puppy from a reputable registration than one that is CKC (Continental Kennel Club) Registered, one with no papers or a registration that registers anything. The other 5% comes from non reputable breeders who take non registered dogs or one from a registry that AKC doesn't accept and register puppies under AKC parents that have passed away or they have sold and held the papers or some other reason I will never agree with. Some litters may only have one true AKC parent but with the unknown is where you get puppies that are obviously not pure and some take after there AKC parents look. You buy that puppy and breed it expecting for there babies to turn out AMAZING and end up with puppies obviously taking after the unknown parent that was not AKC and the quality you thought you were buying.

​

6. (Purchasing a Puppy) When purchasing a puppy a lot of people choose the cheaper puppies failing to realize or think about the future vet bills with health issues and there friends and family looking at them crazy when the show them there new chihuahua they just got. They are then informed it's not pure, they take it to the shelter and are now looking for another puppy. All that money wasted on vet bills and not pure or Quality puppies you spent could have been spent on a Pure Quality puppy that would still be in your family being loved and giving love.

**Remember Not everything you hear about a breeder is true. There are some amazing breeders out there being bashed by Jealous breeders and some buyers that didn't follow there contract and lost there Guarantee. And also ANY GOOD BREEDER will Guarantee there puppies.**
