How do I find a breeder in my area?
Contacting a Breeder
In order to find a breeder in your area, try the local breed club organization for the breed that you are interested in. They can give you contacts for a reputable breeder near you. Most clubs have guidelines that breeders must abide by in order to raise healthy, happy, purebred dogs. Another way to find a good breeder is by attending a local dog show. This will give you the opportunity to see the dogs first hand. You can approach the handler or owner to find out information on who the breeder is.
