There are many important things to consider when purchasing a pedigree puppy. Before buying a puppy or a dog, ask yourself:

Can I afford to have a dog, taking into account not only the initial cost of purchasing the dog, but also the ongoing expenses such as food, veterinary fees?

1. Can I make a lifelong commitment to a dog? - A dog’s average life span is 12 years.
2. Is my home big enough to house a dog?
3. Do I really want to exercise a dog every day?
4. Will there be someone at home for a dog? - dogs get lonely just like humans.
5. Will I find time to train, groom and generally care for a dog?
6. Will I be able to answer YES to these questions every day of the year?

If you have answered ‘no’ to any of the above, you should think again before buying a dog. If you have been able to answer ‘yes’ to all the questions we can assist you in finding your perfect companion.
