Kennel Club Assured Breeder Scheme

The Kennel Club Assured Breeder scheme is an opt-in scheme for breeders, where they agree to follow basic good breeding practice requirements and recommendations as a minimum, which encourage the breeding of healthy, well-adjusted puppies.

Kennel Club Assured Breeders advertising puppies appear at the top of the Find a Puppy listings and are highlighted with an Assured Breeder rosette next to their name on the listing.

If you are not able to find what you are looking for, or there are no breeders of your chosen breed currently listed, then you should contact the Breed Clubs.  The Breed Club secretaries can provide you not only with expert advice on your particular breed of interest, but put you in touch with other breeders who may be able to help you with your search.  Breed Club contact details can be found on the right of the page when you search the Find a Puppy service.

NEW four weeks free cover for your puppies! We've introduced a special enhancement to the Kennel Club Assured Breeder Scheme which allows you to set up FREE cover for puppies you sell.

Remember never go to a pet shop!
The breeding stock sold may have come from puppy farmers – breeders out to make a quick profit often at the expense of the health and welfare of the puppies. Please read the article ‘Puppy farms, puppy dealers and pet shops’ as this will give you the facts if you were planning to buy a puppy from a pet shop or a puppy ‘dealer’.

The Kennel Club, at this time, makes no warranty as to the quality or fitness of any puppies offered for sale. We cannot accept responsibility for any transaction between purchaser and vendor arising from publication of the listing. We would strongly recommend that new owners select a Kennel Club Assured Breeder from the puppy lists on the Find a Puppy service to help ensure the best chance of finding a healthy puppy and having a rewarding dog owning experience.
