It all depends on where your puppy comes from
A serious breeder provides identification and health documents, presents the parents or their information, explains the tests carried out and supports the adopter. Adoption through an association is also a possibility, especially for an adult or a rehomed dog.

A price that seems too good to be true?
- A very low price without supporting documents may conceal an uncertain origin, insufficient socialization, or a lack of health monitoring.
- The parents' screening results must be available for consultation and correspond to the dogs advertised.
- The puppy must be identified, at least eight weeks old, and accompanied by the required documents.
