Signs of a responsible registered breeder

A registered breeder will assess your suitability to own their breed of dog and will answer any questions you may have regarding feeding, housing or training requirements. A registered breeder is also able to provide a Certificate of Registration and Pedigree for your dog should you wish to exhibit your dog at shows or compete in any of the trialling activities. Registered Breeders usually have waiting lists for their puppies and are aware of their resonsibilities for puppies bred by them.

Registered breeders are bound by the SACA Code of Ethics.

"Due to the increase in the number of people falsely claiming to be ANKC Ltd Registered Breeders, the ANKC have added a new facility to their web site, to check if a breeder is a registered ANKC breeder, inquirers simply enter the breeder's prefix (kennel name) or membership number and tick search."
