Red Flags
Here are some red-flags that should prompt you to investigate further!
- Breeders with extremely low prices.
- Lack of paperwork and no contract to sign stating buyer's responsibilities.
- Breeders that will not/can’t answer your questions.
- Hesitance to share genetic and health testing results or breeder does not test their parent dogs at all.
