Beware of this online puppy brokerage


This particular website is a puppy brokerage. The brokerage gets their puppies from puppy mills. The way to tell a brokerage from a responsible breeder is that the brokerage will have dozens of breeds that you can search for, it will have hundreds of puppies of each breed advertised and the puppies are located all over the map at many different breeders' places. A responsible breeder will usually have only 1 or 2 breeds that they breed and will only have a few dogs and few litters and puppies. The website will be for 1 breeder only and will show the parents of the puppies, and will show the puppies as they grow, not just 1 posed photo of the puppy.
