She's lovely - you will share the puppy photos, won't you? (Pretty please!)

 

[JoanneF]

Is this the rescue from Spain that you spoke about on the other forum? Did she come to you already pregnant?

no she didn't come pregnant

Congratulations with your pregnancy, have you had puppies before ?
Have either mum or dad had hip xrays or any BVA eye tests or DNA tests ? it's always interesting to know.

yes they both had all the tests no first litter

 

[JoanneF]

or keep them...

Please Google 'littermate syndrome'

can I register the pups litter?

No.

 

[Violet Turner]

ok thanks I was just checking... how would you sell the pups? @JoanneF

 

[JoanneF]

Well, as the breeder you would have responsibility to microchip them and assess the households they are going to. Ypu also should be prepared to take back and rehome any puppy whose owner can no longer keep it, for any reason, at any time in the future. Please do not sell them on free classified advertising sites or facebook; that would be irresponsible. Normally a good breeder will have a waiting list, it's not an unplanned litter I assume as you said both sire and dam have had the relevant health tests.

@Josie, please would you consider moving these last few posts to Violet's other thread about Olive's pregnancy so as not to confuse anything on @excuseme 's diary? Thank you.

You will not be able to Kc register the puppies.
If both parents are pedigree you will be able to advertise them as "pedigree" puppies and give pedigrees when they leave home at 8 weeks. Do you have the Hip score papers and DNA papers and BVA certificate paperwork so that you can give a copy to each new owner, this will all help you sell the puppies.
You would be sensible if you sold the puppies, never keep more than one puppy at any time. You may have to find a good place to advertise depending on where you live. local papers or in a pet store. There may be one or two people may want a puppy when they discover you have puppies and you may not have to advertise.

ok so I'm going to bed speak soon

I will "vet" people thoroughly before letting them buy one of my babies, I am quiet happy to say NO.
