You have taken the first step and decided that it is time to get a new pet and that pet is going to be a Pug. Now that you have decided what kind of dog to get, the next thing you need is information on where to get your new pet from. Probably the first thing you are going to want to know is the steps you can take in spotting a fake Pug breeder so that you can avoid doing business with them. There are tools you can use and questions you can ask that can help you weed out the fake Pug breeders from the good ones.

A breeder registry is an organization that sets breeding standards from years of experience and then they allow breeders to list with their registry as long as those breeders agree to follow the registry's standards. If the Pug breeder you are considering is not listed with a breeding registry then it may be a sign that they could be a fake Pug breeder.

Your best resource for information regarding your pet is your vet. If you do not already have a vet picked out then the best time to choose one is during the breeder selection process. Your vet should be able to let you know which Pug breeders you are considering are legitimate and which ones to avoid.

If you do not have a vet yet then the perfect time to get one is during the breeder selection phase as the information that your vet has can be extremely valuable when you are making this very important decision.

Local law enforcement is going to also be a resource for valuable information in the search for the perfect Pug breeder for you. If you are considering a Pug breeder that has a track record with the local law officials then it is probably a good guess that you want to avoid that particular breeder at all costs. Many people neglect to check with law enforcement before making this important decision, don't you make that mistake.

Of course to really get a feel for whether or not the Pug breeder you are considering is a fake or not will require talking with the breeder directly to see what their procedures are like. A good breeder will make sure that a new owner leaves with detailed care and feeding instructions for caring for your new dog along with a food sample so you know what to feed your dog.

If the Pug breeder you are considering is not one to offer this kind of assistance then it may be in your best interest to move on to a different Pug breeder, as doing business with one that does not offer assistance in caring for you pet is not the best plan.

Making sure you are only talking to qualified breeders is an important thing to do and you should be sure to take every precaution in your search for a Pug breeder and make sure you eliminate all of the undesirable candidates right away.
