How to find a responsible Cavalier Breeder or any responsible breeder for that matter...

2/23/2016

0 Comments

 
I get a lot of calls about puppies for sale.  As a hobby breeder, I often do not have puppies  available all the time.  I do have a current wait list as we speak. As a breed enthusiast I am very passionate about trying to guide the people who call to fellow cavalier enthusiasts who I believe to be just as passionate about the love and betterment of cavaliers as I am.  There is a lot of anti breeder legislation being pushed now a days.  I want to do my part to support those breeders who are doing a stand up job protecting the breed.   Below is an article I thought worthy of reposting. 


Article Taken from the Humane Society:

 So you've decided to get a dog. Congratulations! You're in for the time of your life. 

Take time to evaluate your lifestyle to figure out exactly what sort of dog you're looking for (e.g., a high energy dog to go running with, or a more sedate dog to lounge on the couch with). Remember that breed is no guarantee of temperament or likes and dislikes, so it's best to get to know the individual animal.
Start at a shelter or rescue group
One in every four dogs in animal shelters in the United States is a purebred, and mixed breed dogs also make great pets, so start your search there. Not only are you likely to find a great dog, you'll also feel great about helping a homeless dog find a loving home. Most dogs lose their homes because of "people" reasons, such as cost, lack of time, lifestyle changes (new baby, divorce, moving, or marriage) or allergies, and not because of something the dohttp://www.humanesociety.org/issues/puppy_mills/tips/finding_respg has done.

You don't want to buy a puppy from a pet store or a website. Most of those puppies come from mass breeding facilities—better known as puppy mills. If you've decided to buy a dog from a breeder, you'll want to support one who has their dogs' best interests at heart.
How to find a responsible breederResponsible breeders don't sell their puppies to the first person who shows up with cash in hand. Too often, unsuspecting people buy puppies from puppy mills, or sometimes neighbors who breed their dog to make a little money or simply because they have a dog "with papers." Too often, the result is puppies in poor health or with temperament problems that may not be discovered right away.
A dog who has genetic health problems due to poor breeding practices or who develops significant behavior problems due to a lack of early socialization can cost thousands of dollars to treat—and result in grief and heartache as well.
Avoid the pitfallsDownload our "How to Identify a Responsible Dog Breeder" [PDF] checklist and take it with you as you visit different breeders. If the breeder you're working with doesn't meet all of the minimum criteria listed, The Humane Society of the United States advises you to walk away. Remember, your dog will likely live 10 to 20 years, so it's well worth investing some time now to be sure you're working with a responsible breeder who breeds healthy, happy dogs and keeps them in clean and humane conditions.
You can also check the PupQuest website, which is run by licensed veterinarians and warns against the health problems with puppy mill dogs.
Get a referralYou can find responsible breeders by asking for referrals from your veterinarian or trusted friends, by contacting local breed clubs, or visiting professional dog shows. Remember, a responsible breeder will never sell her dogs through a pet store or in any other way that does not allow her to meet with and thoroughly interview you to ensure that the puppy is a good match for your family and that you will provide a responsible, lifelong home.
Always visit where they were born and raisedAlways personally visit a breeder's facility before buying a puppy. Find out where your puppy was born and raised. Take the time now to find the right breeder and you'll thank yourself for the rest of your dog's life.

Started last weekend with a bang! This was my second time out with Bentwood Forestcreek Rob Red and I am thrilled to say that we won our first 3 point major Friday morning in Atlanta, GA at the Sawnee Mountain Kennel Club of Georgia AKC Dog Show.  This took place over the same weekend as the Atlanta Cavalier King Charles Specialty Show.  Thanks to Judge Ms. Nikki Riggsbee for this award. Huge thanks to breeders/co-owners Kevin Cline and Ginger Harrison.

Great time at the Palmetto Cavalier King Charles Spaniel Club Specialty, Charleston, SC

Had a great time at the Palmetto Cavalier King Charles Spaniel Club Specialty Show and the AKC Charleston Kennel Club Dog Show in Charleston, SC last weekend. Premiered a new boy named Bentwood Forestcreek Rob Red. It was his first time in the dog show ring and although we were learning each other he was a good cavalier! We did trot away with a Reserve Winners Dog Ribbon out of a very competitive challenge! Special thanks to respected breeder Judge David Kirkland. Huge thanks to breeders/ co-owners Ginger Harrison and Kevin Cline for trusting me with this beautiful new boy. Congrats to Paula Lynn Ayers, Michelle M Jones, Jim Shreffler and Linda Whitmire, for their wins.
