Hi all...

We got a shih tzu from what seemed like a good breeder and less than a week later (and $1000 later on the puppy and vet bills) we had to put her to sleep Crying or Very sad

I wanted to know how to find a good breeder. Besides asking around, how do you know if these breeders really care about their puppies and want to find good homes for them or if they just care about the money?

We want to get another shih tzu but we are really worried about having to go though this again...

If anyone has any tips on how to find good, reputable breeders...it would really help!

Thanks!

There is a "sticky" thread above that has a LOT of information regarding breeders. You might want to take a look at that....it's full of great information.

Hi:

so sorry to about your loss. I know money isn't an issue when it comes to our little puppies but were you able to get any financial compensation from the breeder?

Just curious, where is that breeder located?
