7 Most Important Questions To Ask When Buying A Dog.

1. HOW OLD ARE THE PUPPIES?

This is a very important question that you must ask. When buying a puppy we advise the dog's age is between 4-12 weeks old. If they are any younger than 4 weeks, the breeder shouldn’t be accepting visits from prospective buyers and if they are any older than 12 weeks, it may suggest something is wrong with the puppies.

2. CAN I SEE THE PUPPY'S BOTH PARENTS?

You won’t always be able to visit the puppy with its dad but it is essential that you see it with its mum. You want to assess the temperament of the mum and the puppy and how they interact with each other. Is she aggressive or caring? Is the puppy hyperactive or docile? These answers will help you decide whether this is the right puppy for your family. 

3. HAVE VACCINES BEEN ADMINISTERED TO THE PUPPIES? 

How many shots have the puppies received and when are they due for their next round of shots?

4. HAVE THE PUPPIES BEEN DEWORMED? 

All puppies are born with worms and routine deworming is recommended.

5. HAVE ANY OF THE PUPPIES IN THE LITTER BEEN SICK?

If so, what were the signs, the diagnosis, and treatment measures?

6. WHAT'S THE FULL LITTER? 

The average litter will be between five and six puppies. By handling a few fluff-balls, you will be able to see whether they are all of similar size, character and health. You can also see how they interact with other dogs and you.

7. WHAT ARE YOU CURRENTLY FEEDING THE PUPPIES ?

Regardless of what they are feeding, it is ideal to continue feeding the same food for the first few days at home to minimize the risk of gastrointestinal disturbances. If you choose to change a puppy’s diet, do it gradually.
