#Ethical Breeder

Please don’t spend THOUSANDS on a breeder who is clearly focused on money and doesn’t do anything they say they do! #adoptorshopresponsibly #dogbreeder #backyardbreeder #ethicaldogbreeder #ethicalbreeder #byb #reputablebreeder #goldenretriever #golden #dogbreeding #

Ethical dog breeders are passionate about their breed. An ethical breeder will do all health testing required for that particular breed to ensure that a dam & sire will produce sound puppies without genetic health/structural issues. They will also adequately temperament test their dogs to ensure that they are not breeding dogs with genetic behavioral issues. Ethical breeders will often give a genetic health guarantee for certain periods of time because they know they did everything in their power to produce healthy puppies. They stand behind their dogs. Most importantly, an ethical breeder strives to better a breed while upholding the breed standard.  An ethical breeder: 🟢 Is transparent about results from genetic & health screenings of the parents. All breeding dogs have CHIC numbers. 🟢 Breeds parent dogs who structurally and temperamentally conform to the breed standard. Dam/ Sires are grand champions (GCH) if a breed that can participate in the ring. 🟢 Titles their dogs appropriately 🟢 Does not breed dogs until they are of age 🟢 Does not breed dogs that have health issues/ behavioral issues. Dogs who do not pass health testing are removed from the breeding program. 🟢 Offers a written guarantee against genetic health problems 🟢 Learns about potential buyers, their needs, wants, & expectations for dog ownership. Uses discretion when choosing owners. 🟢 Provides complete, accurate health records for the puppies 🟢 Provides buyers with a pedigree/ registration paperwork 🟢 Retains puppies until they are a minimum of 8 weeks old 🟢 Ensures their puppies are exposed to new people, children, noises, other safe dogs. The breeder has a puppy raising program and performs Early Neurological Stimulation (ENS) 🟢 Will take the dog back at any time for any reason 🟢 Is a member in good standing with the official parent club for the breed & follows the parent club’s Code of Ethics 🟢 Does not breed designer dogs of any kind! Mixed breed dogs have no standard. How do you better a dog breed that has no standard to conform to? There are a handful of other things that I could list that don't fit in the 2,200 character limit. What would you add to this list?

Most folks don't know how to find an ethical breeder, so going to a BYB (backyard breeder) feels like "shopping responsibly". Encouraging families to adopt can help them learn about ethical breeding while saving a dog in need, and most shelter dogs make terrific pets! --- #adoptdontshop #adoptorshopresponsibly #adoptdontshop❤️ #rescueddog #rescuedog #shelterdogsarethebest #cutedog #tripawd #doglove #doglife #happydog #backyardbreeders #bybs #puppymill #hottake #dogloversfeed #ethicalbreeding #ethicalbreeder #shopresponsibly #Hamilton

They’re only 3.5 weeks old—but already hitting huge milestones. From small steps to reacting to sound, this is the stage where confidence starts to build. I begin early exposure to sound, textures, environments, and—soon—transition to raw feeding. These early days are a crucial part of French Bulldog puppy development—and the foundation of raising a well-adjusted, healthy dog. If you’re looking for an ethical Frenchie breeder who prioritizes structure, temperament, and early socialization—
you’re in the right place. www.mypawesomefrenchie.com #frenchbulldogpuppy #frenchiepuppy #fluffyfrenchie #frenchbulldogpuppies #frenchiesofig #frenchiesofinstagram #puppiesofig #dogsofig #puppiesofinsta #dogs_of_instagram #frenchieoftheday
