Choosing a Labrador puppy - 2


Ways to search 
For the inexperienced buyer is the correct way to find a good puppy - a visit to several dog shows, it is desirable that these were major exhibitions (the prestigious exhibition, the more high-quality dogs are). 

The exhibition, try to talk as much as possible with a lot of breeders and owners. Perhaps each of them will praise it is their dog, but eventually you will be able to draw their own conclusions. 

Newbie can hardly see the difference between average and good puppy, as it is by virtue of the one who did not see a litter of Labradors. But even a novice be able to choose a good breeder, to whom he could entrust the choice of a puppy for ourselves. 

It is also desirable to ensure that the mother and the father of the puppies - titled dogs as well as for a beginner it may be some kind of guarantee of the quality of the litter. Though can not help but recall the legendary British producer Poolstead Pretenshious of Rocheby, which is not present, but the father, grandfather, etc. Many famous Labradors. 

Where can I go for information about the litters of Labradors 
Now almost every self-respecting nursery owner male or female dogs have their own site on the Internet, which provides information about the dog kennel, planned or carried out by copulation, etc. Because of this we have a wonderful opportunity, not rising from the table, to conduct its own investigation of the "market" and the litters to choose. Ideally, if you have a clever friend and adviser, who is well versed in the breed and help you make the right choice. 

You can also contact your local kennel club, which probably have litters for sale. But not always (for different reasons) the choices made on the advice of a club employee, will meet your expectations. 

Online newspapers and magazines published many puppies for sale. The prices for puppies in the ads can be very different, as well as the quality of the dogs. These ads give the inexperienced owners as a single female who would like to "play with the puppies," and now do not know how to sell them quickly, and eminent breeders who regularly advertise their kennel in periodicals. 

The worst place to look for a puppy is "bird" market. And although sometimes it can be seen good litters, especially if such a market is located in a major regional center, and the breeders live in small towns and have to go sell their puppies in metropolitan areas, but the likelihood of the market to buy a good puppy is small. As they say in advertising - beware of imitations! 

Choosing a breeder 
There are many classification ¬ dislocations breeders, for example: 
owner of a bitch, who bred her "health" with a neighbor's dog; 
owner of a bitch who thoughtfully took his dog to offspring and realized mating competent, taking into account many factors: genotype, phenotype, heredity, etc., to put it simply - the groom chose a better, perhaps abroad. 
Kennel owner in whose presence there is a certain amount of females. And let's face it, the availability of nursery does not guarantee the implementation of the very best breeding.Unfortunately, very often, "puppy farms" whose owners are looking for husbands, "cheap" yes "closer", caring little about the quality of future offspring in the pursuit of the expected profit from the sale of litters. Typically, these bitches razmnozhentsev a sufficiently low level, knowledge about the breed is low, and in conjunction with the "budget" sticky - the result is quite predictable and sad. In contrast, in the nursery is reputable breeding and selection work, to get the best puppy bitch producer of selected, matched, producing great dogs, bitches on the appropriate genotype, phenotype, monitored the fate of each puppy, so you most likely could predict the expected quality of the new litter, etc. Reputable breeder participates in numerous exhibitions - from small regional to large international, where he shows the results of his labor free ¬ receives an assessment of experts, learn opinion of other eminent breeders. 

As for prices, they may be quite different. You can find a perfectly acceptable option in a large kennel - breeders often go to substantial discounts if the buyer can see in the responsible people, the so-called "good hands" when expecting a puppy will be attached to a big job, it will put a lot that will serve as a kind of advertising for the benefit of the kennel.Of course, your willingness to love a puppy, "and in joy and in sorrow," plays an important role. If you want to bitch, then breeders often do discounts if you sell it for a certain number of puppies from the litter of its future (in this case, the breeder often signed several agreements with you, can draw a puppy in his name to the complete fulfillment of the conditions of purchase, etc. etc.). You can buy a puppy and for the astronomical price of the "mating budget" due to exceptional oratorical talents to the seller and be one on one with problem puppy. Unfortunately, our country is still a high price does not guarantee the quality of the puppies. 

However, in general - the higher the price of the puppies from the breeding titled, with a good pedigree and conformation females with equal or better dog than the many positive reviews about the breeder, the more likely to buy a puppy a high level. 

Crucial moment 
So you've decided on the gender, age, color, and have chosen your puppy to explore several litters. As we said above, the novice is difficult to understand the correctness of the structure and the potential for a puppy. Even for experienced breeders choice of show, breeding dogs, when she was a puppy - is a big lottery. What can we say about buying a puppy novice. So, if you have no experience, it is desirable to choose a puppy from a specialist who knows who will be able to see everything, and give, to send. If not, then let's try to understand a little bit yourself. 

Coming to the breeder, pay attention to cleanliness in the cage, how the breeder treats puppies and adult dogs, the general condition of pups. Both mum and puppies must be groomed, with a shiny coat, with clean eyes and ears, shorn claws, well-fed, happy, peaceful and joyful. Mother of puppies can be a "no fur" (that is, during this period may be shedding much) - it's okay, you tell a well-groomed dog that has little hair because of hormonal changes during this period, from the miserable bitch bad breeder. 

Next, ask the breeder to show you the pedigrees of the puppies mom and dad, their diplomas, tests are desirable to health (eg, certificates of inspection for hip dysplasia). A good breeder will be happy to show you the diplomas, medals and awards their dogs, talking about the success of his previous puppies. It's his pride, he invested in a lot of energy, labor and piece of mind. 

If, however, at the home of the breeder dirty, skinny puppy, and troubled, shaking his head and scratched, my mother is aggressive puppy, the breeder tells you nothing, just trying to give you a puppy as soon as possible and get the money - quickly move away from such a breeder. 
When choosing a puppy, pay close attention to temperament. Some puppies are born leaders, others are not so pushy, some are very sure of themselves, others are timid. Try to see who is friendly and playful puppies, and who is aggressive. Think about what kind of character you have and what kind of dog will suit you: and unapologetic hooligan pup will need strict discipline, you may need a quiet gentle treatment. 

Ask the breeder put a puppy on the table. By ¬ ¬ smot Rita to the baby was a deep chest, as before, like a terrier - not for Labrador. Examine the location of the shoulders and note the length of the neck. I have a puppy at this age should be compact, spin, well-delivered vydrovy tail, thick hair. Pay attention to the correctness of the belt structure of the hind limbs, the angles of joints. Look at the expression of the muzzle - it must be good, pleasant, smiling. Pay attention to the structure of the puppy's head - it should not be narrow or small, should have a correct transition from forehead to muzzle (so as pronounced, and the smoothed profile is not characteristic of Labrador). The puppy must have strong bones. Ask to see a puppy on the move. Stroke the dog, get on your hands - it should not be afraid of human touch, on the contrary, contact with the man brings him joy, it must be nice to the kid.

Remember, this is perhaps the most difficult stage of selecting a puppy for a beginner. If you have no one to consult in order to properly assess the above article, is necessary to read the standard, look at the outstanding representatives of the breed at major trade shows and the Internet. 

Look at the puppy once selected, it must be well-fed, but not pot-bellied (sometimes puppies inflates the abdomen, which indicates the presence of worms), dense, firm, pale skin on the abdomen pink with no rash and scratching, ears clean. Do not forget to inspect the bite, and the males - the presence of both testicles. 

When buying a puppy you should get a puppy to Dog Training Club card (which was subsequently exchanged for pedigree), veterinary certificate indicating the vaccine have already been made and a record of the date of the following vaccinations. It is also advisable to get advice from a breeder on the dates of treatment of intestinal worms, external parasites, feeding on the subsequent recommendations of the puppy, the usual portion of food. In the future, you have a lot more questions, and if you choose the right breeder, he is always happy to answer you and help them to understand, to guide you while you and your wonderful dog it will be a long time to become your trusted friend and advisor .

Also remember that even buying a puppy from a very good breeder of dogs with all sorts of tests on the health and high-profile titles, you are not immune from problems. The puppy may have a hereditary disease that when buying a puppy can not see you or breeder, or you can properly raise a puppy that will amplify the problem, which could have been avoided with proper breeding. A good breeder is doing everything it can to obtain high-quality, healthy puppies, but then all Nature and God disposes. 

Remember that a dog - not a toy, tired - put in a corner, did not like - he gave. Choosing a puppy - it's not a fun adventure and a very important step, because you make a decision on the composition of his family and take responsibility for a living creature for many years. The dog trusts you to your life and you are responsible for it. Of course, finding, selecting and buying a puppy should be a joyful and pleasant events, but not frivolous. The result of your efforts will be a wonderful puppy who will grow in well-bred Labrador and become your most loyal friend.
