hi poochimama,
i'm getting a toy poodle, but i've changed my mind as to where i'm getting it from.

Best avoid Internet sellers and newspaper ads,try breed club or ask your local vet if he knows any ethical breeders.

Friendship is like peeing on yourself.
Everyone can see it, but only you get the warm feeling that it brings.

Don't forget though some decent breeders do advertise on the internet,don't tar them all with the same brush.Puppy buyers need to do their research.

I agree sally anne
I advertise on net but saying that i didnt need to LOL
and i have a website so ppl can see lots of pics of my dogs and get info they need as well . I insist on chatting to potential new owners and expect them to ask me lots too and i ask for references as lets face it these are my babies and i want the best homes eva for them

The net is a minefield and buyers can be taken in so easily its hardly worth the bother of sifting through thousands and thousands of ads, much better to contact breed club for a list and then sift through that. It may be a little more expensive but when we know unfortunate buyers can spend thousands on a sick or defective pup it works out better in the long term.

Breed clubs are the best way to go but decent Breeders do advertise on the net.
You can't tar all Breeders with the same brush,even if you go through a breed club you can't guarentee the breeder is genuine,infact I know of a Breeder who refused to take a dog back they bred yet is a serving active member of a breed club on the commitee.

poochimama
i am trying to find a white toy poodle girl, but i'm finding it very difficult.
and TOBYMUM thankyou so much for your advice.

Janice you are very welcome to advice its the same advice we offer anyone who asks. We turn away as many people as possible away from the internet, newspapers, pet shops etc . Don't rush into anything Janice

Poochmania what you say is true there maybe good breeders advertising but if they are GOOD they will also be on the breed club list. New prospective owner then only has short list to sort out wheat from chaff.

All health test will have been done and new owners can have peace of mind.

OOH yes i had a king charles cavy from a puppy farm its was a nightmare am not going to type all the story in as its to long and painfull ,this is it short, puppy had health problems and very very nervy pee'd everywhere when spoken too, skaybee's(sorry for spellin) heart trouble,canker, plus more to mention,and then sorry to end it he died very heartbreaking, i bombarded her with evrything you name it for the sake of the other puppys she had! i say NAME AND SHAME!

SO MY ADVISE IS STAY AWAY FROM THEM .

am in scotland so its everywhere.
