Article From SubmitYOURArticle.com: Breeding Golden Retrievers– Finding A Respected Breeder

So you've decided to buy one of the most popular
dogs in the world, but now you're asking, "How do
I find someone who is properly qualified for
breeding Golden Retrievers?" There are referrals
for Accredited Breeders on the websites of both
the KC Kennel Club of England and the AKC
American Kennel Club .

Being accredited means that the breeder correctly
follows the breeding guidelines laid down by
these recognized organizations. These include
health screenings and proper treatments. They
also follow strict protocols for mating,
pregnancy, whelping, and puppy care. Going with
one of these breeders greatly increases your
chances of purchasing a healthy, purebred golden.

There are a few more things that can be done to
give you a higher chance of success. Good
breeders will provide information and
instructions about socialization, feeding,
medical care, and exercise. They will also let
you to see the puppy with its parents. It can
yield very useful information by seeing the
mother and father.

Pure bred, healthy, active parents give a much
higher chance that the puppy will be healthy as
well. A quality Golden Retriever breeder will
care for worming, vaccinations, and micro
chipping. The microchip is a permanent form of
identification. When you bring your puppy home,
the breeder should advise you to transfer
ownership information attached to the chip.

A contract of sale should be provided by the
Golden Retriever breeder. This should include
all the information about the dog's registration
with the AKC or KC. If they do not offer this
document, you can, and should, ask for it.

You can also ask for the golden's pedigree in
writing, health certificates for the puppy's
parents, and health, training, feeding, and
exercise advice in writing. In fact, ask all
your questions. Good breeders like to make sure
their dogs are placed well in good homes. They
welcome questions and are generous with
information and advice.

You can start your search looking for breeders on
the national kennel club websites. Research
some, visiting the ones you can. See how they
look after their animals and check out the
condition of their environments.

All Goldie puppies are cute and endearing, but
remember that when you go looking for the perfect
puppy from the perfect Golden Retriever breeder,
you should ask tons of questions. Interview
several breeders, because the more information
you have, the better. Your Golden Retriever will
be a member of your family for a lot of years and
it is well worth your investment of time and
money. By taking the time and choosing wisely,
you will be rewarded with many years of happy dog
ownership.
