Puppy Search and Selection: Choosing the Right Toy Poodle
Choosing a puppy is a big step. It’s important to do the right research to ensure a long and happy life with your new furry friend. If you have decided that the toy poodle is the breed for you, here are some tips on how to choose wisely.
Choose a Responsible Breeder
The first step in finding your toy poodle puppy is finding a responsible breeder. A good breeder will care for the health and well-being of their dogs, both parents and puppies.
In kennels, dogs must have sufficient space to move freely. Additionally, the breeder must be willing to answer all your questions about the breed and its dogs in particular.
A responsible breeder will also provide you with all the necessary documents related to the health of the puppy’s parents and its general health. Contact us for all information.
The Importance of Genetics and Parental Health
One of the most important aspects to consider when choosing a puppy is the health of the parents. Genetics play a crucial role in determining the future health of your dog, so serious checks must be done before purchasing.
Ask the breeder if screening tests have been performed for common genetic diseases in toy poodles such as eye problems, the presence of patellar luxation in the parents or in the genetic lines. A good breeder will want to minimize the risk of such conditions through careful selection of pedigree lines.
