It’s Time To Celebrate Responsible Dog Breeders!
Dog breeders have been hiding in the shadows long enough, feeling ashamed to declare who we are and what we do. As ethical and responsible dog breeders, we work incredibly hard and put our all into the dogs and puppies we share our lives with.
National Dog Breeder Day recognises and celebrates you for the hard work, dedication and commitment you put into breeding. You make an enormous difference to people’s lives when you put a well-bred, happy puppy into their homes. And we want to celebrate YOU!
We are going to illuminate this industry, because it is the only way to benefit our dogs for the longer term.
Ethical Dog Breeders Unite!
Your work is important. You breed people’s best friends. And you put your heart and soul into it.
When we champion the work, dedication and skill behind ethical and responsible breeding, we pave the way for transformational change.
It is through highlighting and celebrating responsible dog breeders that we’ll raise the bar and reduce the number of dogs who end up in rescue.
Plus, we’ll help educate the general public on what to look for in a good breeder, so they can make well-informed choices.
Long days, missed holidays, sleep deprivation and emotional exhaustion.
For a dedicated reputable dog breeder, this is what life looks like.
When you commit to breeding a litter of puppies, you live and breathe taking care of them for months on end. From choosing the right dogs to breed from, to nurturing and physically caring for Mum, right through to whelping and raising the litter with care.
Responsible dog breeders are dedicated to doing things correctly, safely and backed by education and science.
Their paws are quite literally in our hands. And we devote our all to them.
