The Kennel Club Assured Breeders scheme aims to work together with breeders and buyers to force irresponsible breeders, or puppy farmers, out of business.
During this period of uncertainty for us all, The Kennel Club is here for you and your dog. We have devised FAQs, advice and support on our website for breeders and health testing schemes.
Our inbreeding calculators use all our pedigree records to calculate the degree of inbreeding for individual dogs or for the future puppies of two potential mates.
