Placing Pups in their New Homes
Dog placing is vital because you can not possibly take care of all the puppies once they grow up right? Well, if you are that rich, you might be able to give the puppies a decent home. What if you can not?
On the pups’ sixth week, dog breeders are already preparing for the placing of their pups. Six puppies are too much to handle and it can ruin your home if you leave them unattended. At this age, the puppies are curious and they prefer to wander around and explore their surroundings. This is the best time for socialization.
On the seventh to eight week of the puppies, you can already start looking for potential buyers or new owners. At this age, pups are more comfortable in dealing with other people. However, in the case of insecure pups, you require to give them more time. Did you take your pups for temperament tests? So what’s the result?
Placing pups in their new homes entails a lot of legwork. You need to ensure that their new owners are responsible enough to care for your pups. It is also not a good idea to sell the puppies at the very first customers that pass by. There are even times when you need to consider selling the pups somewhere else and not just in your area. You need to ensure that the pups will not end up in animal shelters. What if a purchaser returned the pup? What will you do? Can you afford to keep the extra pups as additional pets? All these questions should be answered before you started dog breeding.
When a potential buyer approaches you, you should conduct a bit of background check. Try to check what kind of work they do, how many kids they’ve, where they live, if they have pets at home, and other related things. If you want, you can create a questionnaire for them to answer or you can interview them personally. It is extremely important that you get a glimpse of the life of the purchaser so that you can at least tell if the new owner can handle the responsibility of taking care of the pup.
Once you checked the background of the buyer, you can now decide to sell the pup.
If the rest of the pups are not sold, you can give it as a gift to love one. You can also ask your relatives if they’re willing to care for a new dog. If you still end up with the rest of the pups, you’ll need to care for them until they grow up. Who knows? The dogs might be good for breeding more puppies.
