Why A Rottweiler Breeder Is Better To Buy From Than A Pet Store
When you have made the decision that it is time to get a Rottweiler puppy you are encouraged to buy from a reputable Rottweiler breeder and avoid a pet store at all costs. There are so many things a young puppy needs to know before it can adjust to your home and a pet store offers nothing in the way of getting your puppy ready to go home with you.
A pet store is great for buying all of the supplies you will need for your pet but they should not be allowed to sell living animals at all. The travesty is that a pet store selling puppies gets worse and worse every year.
Then the puppies are pulled out of a cage and sent to a pet store and sold to you. This is just the beginning of the pet store horror story.
A good and reputable Rottweiler breeder takes their job very seriously and wants to make sure that you leave with all of the care and feeding instructions you are going to need to take care of your new puppy. The breeder also knows that a new home is stressful for a puppy so they will take the time to get your puppy used to a home setting before you even get it into your own home which makes adjustment easy.
There is very little chance that the pet store clerk you are dealing knows any more than taking your money and giving you your receipt. They don’t have any information or advice to offer and probably have no clue how to raise your puppy. Your puppy has never been out of its cage or at least out of the pet store and there will be a long and frustrating adjustment time for you and the puppy when you get it home.
A reputable Rottweiler breeder will monitor the health of the dogs they breed and they try to make sure that the puppies they sell are without disease and have no health problems. Unfortunately not all health problems can be seen when they are puppies but a breeder will work with you if health problems arise later in the puppy’s life.
To a pet store a puppy is a product supplied by a puppy mill. They have no idea if the puppy is healthy and, honestly, once you pay your money they do not care either. Your chances of getting an unhealthy puppy from a pet store are very high.
Until people start to realize what is really going on there will always be dogs suffering to bred more puppies just so pet stores can make their profit and grow their business.
