Breeder Questionnaire

Question. Do you health test appropriately (eg hip and elbow X-ray scoring, DNA testing), and understand the genetic issues that may affect your breed? Do you have sensible, sustainable breeding strategies in place to promote the health of your dogs and puppies?
Yes
I test each breeding individual for recommended panel DNA tests to assess if individuals carry heritable diseases or traits. I use panel tests for basset hounds (thrombocytopaenia, glaucoma, autoimmune disorder) and wire dachshunds (PRA, neurological issues).
Question. Do you ensure that your puppies are properly socialised?
Yes
We provide adequate handling, introduce puppies at a young age to other local handlers, socialize puppies after 3 months at local shows, and attend puppy schools at our local veterinarian's office (Moorong St. Clinic in Wagga Wagga NSW).
Question. Do you have any of the following: conditions of sale, health guarantee or warranty, de-sexing agreement, a buyer questionnaire, verbal or personal interview?
Yes
I perform personal interviews and make sure the pups are not sold to pet breeders or those not prepared or informed about breed issues. A fenced yard is a must, as well as proper training and nutrition. We provide a health guarantee for the pup at the time of sale, 2 shots, microchipping and deworming. We do not rehome before 10 weeks of age.
Question. Is ensuring that your puppies go to the right home a high priority? What type of measures do you take to ensure your dogs and puppies are going to go to loving homes?
Yes
We refuse to sell female puppies to breeders of pets. We sell pets with a spay neuter contract and limited registry. We make sure all owners are properly informed about breed issues, and willing to train and exercise their pets in a safe environment. A fenced yard and plenty of time to exercise and train are a must. We follow up our inquiries with other breeders who have been contacted by the same parties as well. We suggest owners insure their pets with medical insurance where possible.
Question. Do you offer ongoing support?
Yes
I provide my phone number and am available for training and health advice. If the puppy suffers a chronic health condition later, we offer future replacement. We suggest training where possible and assist interested parties in showing and training their puppies.
Question. In the long term, do you assist with re-homing a puppy or dog if for some reason the new family are no longer able to care for it?
Yes
We assist any of our pets or show dog owners to rehome their dogs if required.
Question. Do you offer pet insurance?
Yes
We provide paperwork for owners to retain insurance for their puppy with Pet Plan Insurance.
