You are looking at puppy mills and backyard breeders here. I know they make their sites look real pretty but it is easy enough to do. Just because they register with AKC does not mean they are not a puppy mill. AKC registers thousands upon thousands of puppy mill and BYB pups yearly. They make a lot of money from them.

I would do a club search on the AKC website ((don't bother with the classified ads) and find a club in your area or state. Those clubs have breeder referral people (should be listed in their information on the AKC website) They only refer to breeders they know and are reputable. Believe me their standards are much higher than AKC's registration standards are.

Don't be discouraged if the first person you talk to does not have pups. They may know others who do have pups or you can get on a wait list of a breeder that you like. It is usually best to check out the breeder and get references before you decide to buy anyway.

Hopefully, you are about to purchase a little dream pup that will be part of your family for many, many years to come. Take your time finding just the right one.
