Follow us on Instagram: instagram.com/responsiblebreeders There has been a lot of misunderstanding in our modern society for how much blood, sweat, tears (and money!) a RESPONSIBLE BREEDER puts into whatever animals they choose to preserve. The purpose of this page is to EDUCATE and SHARE the truth, the love! Without these dedicated good breeders focusing on breeding with a purpose, we would not h
ave all of our wonderful domesticated animals by our sides. Animals like dogs, cats, chickens, goats, sheep, cattle, guinea pigs, rabbits and more, all bred with a purpose in mind and raised with LOVING responsible hands. So what makes someone a Responsible Breeder? Someone is a Responsible Breeder when they genuinely care about their chosen breeds by preserving populations, breeding only with purpose in mind, investing in breed-specific health testing, temperament testing, good socializing, Spay and neuter or non-breeding contracts (when an animal is not part of a breeding program or service) and an agreement to take an animal back or assist in re-homing should the owners no longer want it or be able to care for it. A Responsible Breeder is there for support for the life of the animal and it is in their best interest to find loving Responsible Owners to be forever homes. Most Responsible Breeders will screen potential owners carefully to make sure that the specific animal and breed is the right fit. Many times, these animals will be available with current vaccines, de-worming and a microchip / tattoo ID for the safety of the animal. Doing these simple things will produce healthier, happier animals that are less likely to be neglected or abandoned in shelters. Animals in shelters are very rarely from good breeders. Responsible Breeders and breed clubs will fight to protect any of their own that may end up in shelters. All parent breed clubs follow a CODE OF ETHICS. Many of these include a message similar to this: Breeders shall not knowingly sell or consign puppies or adult dogs to pet stores, puppy brokers or other commercial dealers, and shall not dispose of any puppy or adult dog, owned or co-owned by them in shelters, pounds, or any other rescue organization. Did you know that Responsible Breeders started and continue truly non-profit RESCUES for their chosen animals? (not those that collect for their corporations rather than actually helping animals.) There are so many misunderstandings that need to be brought to light. So what makes someone a Reputable Rescue? Reputable Rescues will inform potential adopters of background and health information on the animals they take in. They will honestly evaluate temperaments and help with rehabilitation or initial medical needs. They make sure that all animals are spayed and neutered before leaving and are micro-chipped for the safety of the animal. Reputable Rescues will take their animals back if the new owner is no longer able to keep them and will offer guidance when help is needed. Together, we will educate animal owners so that they can identify and choose to support Responsible Breeders or Reputable Rescues. We will promote ethical and responsible breeding practices, while not losing our rights to do so in the first place. We need these animals for our future, don't let them be taken away by those who do not understand. No hatred will be tolerated on this page. All images used are with permission of their owners.
