Your Rottweiler breeder should be affiliated with a breeder registry so ask them which one they are listed with. A good Rottweiler breeder will offer care and feeding instructions as well as ongoing support to new owners. Sometimes a reputable Rottweiler breeder will offer free pet insurance and the option to return the pet with no refund.

It is time to go out and find a Rottweiler breeder to get your new pet from and one of the first things you need to arm yourself with is a checklist of questions that you should be asking your Rottweiler breeder so that you know exactly what kind of person you are dealing with. The choice of a breeder is an important decision, so make sure you have all of the resources at your disposal you can and be sure to ask a lot of questions.

A reputable breeder is going to be listed with a national breeder registry because a national breeder registry is going to set the standard the breeder uses for good breeding practices. Always check what your breeder says by searching the registry's Internet site so that you can confirm what they tell you. If they are not listed then ask them why they are not listed and ask them what breeding standards they use if it is not the standards of a reputable national organization.

Ask your potential Rottweiler breeder what information they will give you when it comes to the care and feeding your new dog. A reputable and good breeder will always supply a new owner with complete information, usually in writing, on how to properly care for their new dog. Most breeders will also give you samples of the food your new dog eats so you can get the right kind of food. A breeder that is not offering this kind of important information may not be a breeder you want to deal with.

When you leave with your new pet your relationship with your breeder does not end. You should always feel like you have an open channel to your breeder so you can ask questions about your new pup. Your breeder should be just as interested in the health and well being of your dog as you are so make sure they are there for you after the sale.

In some cases insurance companies will offer free pet insurance to a reputable Rottweiler breeder so that they can pass it on to new owners. The insurance last six weeks, which is just long enough to cover that first vet appointment. The insurance company hopes you will like the insurance and pay to renew it while the breeder will just be happy you are getting the dog the medical attention it needs.

Different breeders have different policies and some breeders will offer to take back a pup if you ever find yourself unable to care for it anymore. The breeder will not offer a cash refund but they will offer the dog a chance at a new home and the chance to stay out of shelters or avoid being abandoned. You should always learn as much as you can about your Rottweiler breeder, as you will be dealing with them for many years to come.
