Buying a Puppy from a breeder
Disreputable dog breeders, who are usually in the "puppy-farm" business just for the money, can wreak misery and death on the innocent animals that would otherwise be lifelong pets and friends.
There are some simple guidelines that, if followed, could put such people out of business, and give a dog a long happy life.
Trading Standards recommendations for buying a puppy
 | Be wary of outlets offering more than one or two breeds |
| When visiting the seller note the surroundings |
| Visit the puppy more than once |
| Ask to see the pedigree papers and ensure the breeder's name is on the certificate |
| The breeder should want to know about you too |
| Ask to see the puppy with its Mother - be very suspicious if you can't |
Puppies bred commercially, indiscriminately and carelessly are likely to…
| Develop disease |
| Have temperamental problems |
| Find adjusting to family life hard |
| Be difficult to housetrain |
| Suffer physical defects and have hereditary weaknesses |
Think carefully before buying and do not buy the puppy because you feel sorry for it.

Dog Rescue
Battersea Dogs Home is devoted to finding dogs loving and permanent new homes.
A dedicated team interviews everyone who wants to offer a home to a dog and their unique computer matching system helps them find the perfect match.
The average stay for a dog at Battersea Dogs Home is 23 days, but some dogs end up staying a bit longer through no fault of their own. Sometimes a dog needs an extra-special home, with experience of their breed, temperament, or they may be unsuitable with children or other animals.
Whatever the reason, the dedicated staff here at the Dogs Home take care of them until the right owner comes along.
