Finding a Responsible Shorkie Breeder

Myths and Facts

You're looking for that dream Shorkie puppy. You think you know just what you want. But do you? Before you buy, please consider if you have chosen a truly good Shorkie  breeder. You deserve a happy, healthy, wonderful Shorkie puppy! You'll be living with your choice for more than a decade- take the time to choose carefully!

Genetic Testing and Health

Responsible Shorkie breeders

The Shorkie breeder said both parent dogs had been checked by a vet, so I guess the pups should be healthy. The breeder had their lines for 20 yrs with no problems.

MYTH!!!!!

Most vets are not experts in canine reproduction. They also may not want to lose business by telling their clients not to breed. In addition, the breeder may have heard only what he wanted to hear, not what the vet actually told him!

No vet can tell that a dog is free of genetic disease just by looking at the dog. Most genetic tests require special examinations by qualified veterinarians.

So with that said: If a Shorkie Breeder has been breeding for a few years why wouldn't they invest the money they have made from the puppies they have produced to test the parents for genetic issues.

Genetic disease in Shorkies  is devastating. Every year, uncounted families are heartbroken when their beloved shorkies  are crippled from hip dysplasia, go blind from progressive retinal atrophy, are found to be deaf, die of cardiomyopathy, or suffer from many other disorders. TMany of these tragic incidents could have been prevented with proper genetic testing before breeding and/or screening of the puppies. Responsible Shorkie breeders do this; irresponsible ones do not.

By conducting thorough genetic screening programs, responsible Shorkie breeders can greatly reduce their chances of producing an affected puppy. Irresponsible breeders can make no such claim.

 

The Shorkie puppies are AKC parents, so they must be healthy.

The American Kennel Club is only a registry. AKC registration does not guarantee you a quality puppy any more than DMV registration guarantees you a quality car.

So just because your Shorkie Breeder has AKC dogs does not mean they are quailty and should be bred

The AKC does not register shorkies or approve of mixed breeding

The American Kennel Club is the oldest purebred dog registry in the US. AKC registered more than 1.3 million purebred dogs and more than 550 thousand litters in its 145 breeds in 1997. The top 10 breeds (Labrador Retriever, Rottweiler, German Shepherd, Golden Retriever, Poodle, Beagle, Dachshund, Cocker Spaniel, Yorkshire terrier, and Pomeranian) accounted for more than 560 thousand of the total individual registrations.

Most people who breed purebred dogs claim some affiliation with a registry as a seal of quality for their puppies.(puppy parents need to understand this) Many use that affiliation as a marketing tool, but buyers often learn the hard way that an AKC puppy purchased from a pet store or a backyard breeder is highly unlikely to be of the same caliber as an AKC registered puppy purchased from a reliable breeder. The same should be  said for Shorkie Breeders

Just because the dogs they are producing Shorkie puppies are AKC registered does not mean they are breeding quailty.

All of my personal dogs are Triple registered.

AKC CKC and APR but that has nothing to do with Shorkie Breeding and producing healthy Shorkie puppies.

Fact!

Responsible Shorkie breeders gentically screen their breeding adults!

 

Consider the Responsible Shorkie Breeder

  1. Care about each dog you bring into this world. Treat it as part of your extended family when you place it in a new home.
  2. Take positive steps to make sure the dogs you create will never land in a shelter or in rescue.
    • Interview interested parties to ensure they are a suitable match for the dogs you will be placing. Verify the information you were given.
    • Be honest about the qualities of the dogs you are placing. Explain the good points, and the not so good.
    • Never promote your puppies in a way to encourage reluctant buyers. If they need a special price or some incentive to buy they aren't the right home for your Shorkie puppies. The home for your puppies is the home that will sacrifice to have one. It isn't money you are looking for but honest dedication.
    • It must be very clear that the person taking home your puppy chooses to do so. No surprise gifts no matter how earnest the belief that the giftee wants the dog. The right match is a personal matter and the person who will be closest to the dog deserves to be involved.
    • Promise to take in, or help place, dogs or puppies you have caused to be created, no matter how old they are.
    • Remain available to serve as a resource, advise and support for typical problems encountered in raising, training and caring for your dogs.
  3. Take positive steps to ensure that the dogs you produce are a source of joy, not sorrow.
    • Know the typical genetic diseases for your breed. Test for them, and do not breed a dog that may pass on serious genetic disease.
    • Do not let your love for your dog make you blind to your obligation to others. Your dog may be healthy, but may still pass on serious genetic disease. Do what you can to avoid causing heartache.
    • Do not breed your dog if you have no information on the health and fitness of both the parents of your dog, and its prospective mate. You need more than a single generation to make a good decision.
      •
    • Get an education in basic genetics to help you understand why two dogs that are perfectly healthy can produce puppies that will suffer serious genetic disease.
  4. Make sure that the dogs you produce are capable of a full and happy life, sound in mind, body and temperament. Recognize that good physical health is not enough; the dogs should be raised to be great companions too.
    • Even if you love your dog very much, and can forgive its faults of temperament, do not breed overly timid or aggressive dogs. Most lead overly restricted lives, and many are killed long before their time, far better they never exist in the first place.
    • Understand that your love of your dog can make you blind to its faults.
    • An outside eye will help both you and your puppy buyers know that your opinions are more than just wishful thinking.
  5. Ensure that the necessary time is invested to produce puppies that will make good companions.
    • If you own the sire ensure that the puppies you are responsible for creating will get the necessary time and attention.
    • In most cases a responsible person will need to be home full time from one week before the dam is due to whelp until the last puppy is in its new home.
    • Provide the best opportunity for building self-confidence and individual identity. Give each puppy individual attention away from its littermates on a daily basis. Failure to provide proper socialization may not produce "bad pets" but it will limit realizing the full potential of each dog, and yes sometimes does deprive the puppy of learning the skills necessary to be a good companion.
    • A person who cares about producing the very best out of their puppies will limit their breeding. In most breeds that means no more than one litter at a time because one litter is about all the time one human has for proper socialization.
  6. If you don't want to have the same responsibility for the progeny of your dogs then insist the dogs you produce be spayed or neutered. Remember, you are the one in control. You can require agreement by contract. If someone insists on irresponsible breeding you don't have to be a part of it. Use your power of contract to educate, and to enforce your role as a responsible breeder.
  7. Contribute to the future well being of dogs. Support and participate in programs designed to collect and maintain standardized information on the health of dogs. Centralized data collection will provide a tool to better enable thoughtful breeders to spot and avoid problems.
  8. Don't breed a very young dog. Mere physical ability to bear puppies is not enough. The dog needs to be completely physically and mentally mature. In most breeds that means at least two years old.
  9. Learn the risks before breeding. Decide whether your goals are worth risking the life or health of your dog.
