If you want to check to see if a breeder sells to wholesalers which usually translates to Brokers, you can go into the USDA site that lists those who are licensed by the govt to sell wholesale. My understanding is they must be licensed to carry on these activities and I have found more recognized puppy millers names on there than enough. I mostly checked the Amish(primarily) in PA but MO is the state with so many of them. Also, many of the midwest states have a tremendous number of them. If you want the addy of the site I am sure I can send it to you if you PM me. There are probably others who sell without a license but I would not think a broker or pet store would chance repercussions by dealing with them.
Maybe the adm could let me know it is okay to post the addy on the forum??? |
