  1. Where To Buy A Dog Or Puppy

  2. How to Buy a Puppy • If you have made the exciting decision to get a new puppy, you’re probably ready to bring one home as soon as possible. • Not so fast, though—you will need to take the time to figure out which breed is the best fit for you, pick out your puppy from a reputable source (breeder, animal shelter, rescue group) and prepare your home for a puppy. • Taking your time to do your homework and learn as much as you can will go a long way in ensuring that you and your new puppy will share a happy, lifelong friendship.

  3. Decide what breed is a good fit for you • Research breeds with characteristics (e.g., small dog, calm temperament, etc.) that make them a good fit for your life situation. • The AKC has a matching quiz that can help you choose a breed. • Dogs come in all shapes, sizes and personalities. • Choosing the wrong breed can result in heartbreak for all if you realize that he is not a good fit for your home. • A few examples of important factors to keep in mind include your living situation (apartment vs home)[5]and work schedule (regular work hours vs constant travel).

  4. Visit shelters in your area. • If you are not as particular about what type of breed you want, consider going to a shelter to meet puppies in person. • When you are the shelter, ask questions about the puppies’ history and behavior. • Also, try to observe the activities at the shelter to determine if the dogs are well taken care of. • Animal shelters can be stressful environments for dogs because of the noise, number of dogs, and high level of general activity. • Some dogs may develop behavioral problems while at the shelter. • The staff at the shelter should inform you if the puppy you are interested in has any behavioral issues.

  5. Buying a Puppy From a Breeder • Not all breeders are reputable, so you will want to know which ones to consider and which ones to avoid if you want to buy a puppy through a breeder. • One type of breeder is a hobby show breeder. • Hobby show breeders are highly knowledgeable about a dog breed and invest considerable time and energy into selecting an optimal pedigree and raising show quality puppies. • These breeders will typically raise only one or two litters per year.

  6. Visit the breeder’s location • You should never purchase a puppy through a breeder without having visited the breeder’s location. • It is very important that you see where your puppy, his littermates, and his parents were housed and raised. • A responsible breeder will actually encourage you to visit multiple times so that you completely comfortable with his or her physical location and business practices.

  7. Choosing the Right Puppy • Physically exam the puppy. • Puppies are ready to be adopted between eight and twelve weeks of age, at which time they are weaned from their mothers, able to eat solid food, and have received the first round of vaccinations. • A puppy may look healthy at first glance but, upon closer inspection, may have some physical abnormalities. • If you see signs that the puppy is not in good health, you may need to reconsider adopting the puppy. • A good way to physically exam a puppy is start at the head and work your way to the tail.

  8.
