Siberian Husky Breeders And How To Spot Fakes
No commentsWhen you decide it is time to get a Siberian Husky as your next pet you want to be sure that the person you are getting your dog from is a qualified and reputable breeder. The Siberian Husky is a popular breed of dog and there are a lot of people out there acting like a Siberian Husky breeder that should not be in the business. There are ways of spotting a fake Siberian Husky breeder and you need to do your homework to protect yourself and your family from a fake.
The very first thing you should check is to see if the breeder you are dealing with is listed with a national breeder registry. Breeders listed with a national registry subscribe to a breeding standard created from years of research and experience. If the breeder you are talking to does not subscribe to a breeding standard then ask them why and be wary of that breeder.
One of the more important relationships in the life of your dog is the relationship between you and the breeder. Talk to your prospective Siberian Husky breeders and see what their feelings are about offering you support and advice after the sale is over.
If the breeder you are talking to does not like to offer post sale advice or does not seem to keen on the concept of being involved in your dog’s life after the sale is over then deal with a different breeder.
A good breeder will send a new owner home with care and feeding instructions so you know how to take care of your dog after you get it home. They will also send you home with a sample of the dog’s food so you know what to feed your dog. If the breeder you are talking to does not offer care instructions and food samples then you may want to move on.
It is not unusual for insurance companies to offer new owners free pet insurance for six weeks after the sale is complete. This is usually offered only through a very reputable Siberian Husky breeder. The insurance company hopes you like the insurance enough to keep it and pay for it after the trial period.
The insurance company is hoping you will like it so much that you will pay to keep the pet insurance on your dog. Offering free pet insurance is a good sign from a reputable Siberian Husky breeder and not knowing what free pet insurance is can be a bad sign.
Exhaust all of your resources and make sure that you are very confident that you are getting the best possible Siberian Husky breeder because if you are not then that will show up later on in your dog’s life.
