Putting The Spotlight On Your Shih Tzu Breeder
|
You want to know your breeder so ask them how long they have been in business, how they got started, how they feel about the dogs they sell, and anything you think you need to know to feel like you know your breeder as a professional breeder. Leave any personal information out of it, you can find out what you need to know about their personality by just talking to them. Also ask them what national breeder registry they are listed with and why they chose that registry. Ask about them because they will ask about you. When it is time to take your new Shih Tzu puppy home your Shih Tzu breeder should be offering you free pet insurance. This pet insurance will extend for six weeks after you take your Shih Tzu home and many pet owners have never had pet insurance before so be sure you ask a lot of questions and understand how it all works before you leave. Pet insurance can really help out at that first vet appointment. If you do not get the free pet insurance offer then ask your breeder why. They get it for free so they should be offering it to you. Your Shih Tzu breeder will bury you in care and feeding instructions for your new Shih Tzu puppy and they expect you to ask a lot of questions before you go home. So go ahead and ask anything you can think of. It is important to the breeder, you, and your dog that you understand all of the care and feeding information you are given so that you know what to do for your dog when you get it home. Do not leave your breeder's property without completely understanding your responsibilities. Your Shih Tzu breederknows that a reality of life is that things change and as much as you may love your Shih Tzu when you take it home things happen and things can change so that you may not be able to keep your Shih Tzu anymore. Ask your breeder about their policy of taking your dog back if you cannot keep it or no longer want it. You will not be getting a refund of any kind but at least you know that your Shih Tzu will wind up safe and potentially into another home instead of abandoned somewhere. Your Shih Tzu breeder expects you to have questions so be prepared to take notes because there is a lot you will need to know to properly care for your Shih Tzu dog. It is a very good possibility that your breeder will also have this information already printed out for you to take home, which is what the best breeders do. Never be afraid to ask a question and know that there is no such thing as too many questions or a dumb question when it comes to your new Shih Tzu puppy.
