The Top 10 Questions to Ask Your Breeder

Just like choosing a doctor to care for your health or a vet to deal with your puppy’s medical concerns, finding a breeder to get your Doodle puppy from is a big decision. Knowing what to look for in a Doodle breeder and knowing the questions to ask before choosing the breeder you will get your puppy from is important. Not only does it help you get a better understanding of who you will be working with and knowing how your puppy will be treated before coming into your home, but it also helps you uncover if the breeder’s ideals and treatment of puppies align with your own. When talking to your breeder, be sure to ask the following questions:

• Why do you breed Doodles specifically?
• What got you started as a Doodle breeder?
• What sets you apart from other Doodle breeders?
• What is one thing you wish everyone knew before they got a puppy?
• How many personal dogs do you own?
• What is the best way to get in touch with you?
• Are you on social media? If so, what platforms do you use?
• Tell me something unique about yourself?

Why It’s Important to Get to Know Your Breeder

We all know that getting a puppy is a life-changing decision. Ensuring that the puppy you get is healthy, happy, and suited for your family is important to your family’s happiness and the happiness and well-being of your puppy. One of the best ways to ensure your puppy will begin its life in a healthy environment, it’s essential to get to know the breeder that will be caring for them until they are old enough to join your family. By asking a potential breeder the questions above, it can help you better understand why they are breeding Doodle puppies and how they manage and care for the puppies once they are born.
