With Christmas coming up, please do not buy puppies as presents. Do you research first, here are some tips shared.

Recently, we were called regarding a group of more than 20 Border Collies housed in completely unsuitable circumstances. The breeder of these Border Collies is a well-known man to us, and this is not the first time we have been asked to step in. It is gut-wrenching and devastating to see this beautiful breed in such dire circumstances and demotivating to know that as a rescue organisation, we work so hard to stop indiscriminate breeding and to find only the best homes for our rescues. Still, breeders like him sell their puppies for R5000 or more, and then keep them in the most horrible conditions.
This case was handed to the SPCA and is ongoing.
Please ensure you know where your cute “pure-bred” Border Collie puppy comes from. Do your background checks and buy from a reputable breeder. Getting your puppy from a Gumtree advert, delivered to your home by a nice-looking assistant is not called a smooth transaction and should make all alarm bells ring.
How do you know a breeder is reputable and ethical?
• The breeder is registered with a breeder organisation, has a website and references/reviews
• The puppies are vaccinated and have a health certificate
• You can meet the breeding parents and litter of puppies at the breeder’s residence
• You sign a contract
• The breeder insists that you return the dog you purchased should you no longer be able to keep it. You may not rehome or sell it.
• The breeder asks you for all your personal information and may even require a reference or home check
• The price is considerably more than that of a Gumtree advert, and there is a waiting list

Christmas time coming, the time people go on holidays and surrender their dogs. Then buy a new puppy in the new year. I kid you not..... Dogs are a life time commitment.
