Thinking of getting a new puppy?

Looking for a new puppy to bring into the household can be an exciting experience. While MOTC certainly encourages dog ownership we also recognize that unfortunately humans do not always do their best for our canine friends.

When searching for that special canine to share your life we encourage you to check out breed rescue groups and your local animal shelter. Many breeds have their own rescue groups and websites.

If you choose to buy a puppy research your source well. A registered or registerable puppy does not mean it is healthy or comes from good breeding stock. AKC registration only certifies that the puppy's parents were listed with AKC. It does not certify that both parents did not develop cancer, eye problems, hip problems,epilepsy, or were well tempered and good with children. We recommend that if you choose to buy a puppy you ask lots of questions to verify that your puppy comes from a reputable breeder and not a puppymill.

A "puppymill" breeds popular breeds as a commodity for profit with little if any regard for quality of the puppies or the quality of life given to dogs and puppies. Females are breed often with little rest and may never leave their crate. Males may be removed from crates only for breeding. When dogs cannot be bred no more, they are "disposed of." Conditions are generally dirty, unsanitary, and dogs receive little if any human contact including grooming. Certainly not the kind of environment you want your canine companion in! Puppymill puppies are often sold to petshops and when breeds go "out of fashion" old breeding stock is exterminated and is replaced by new, often from animal shelters or dognappers. If you suspect a puppymill, please contact your local animal control officer.

If you've thought of purchasing a puppy in a petstore, please give consideration to where many of these animals come from.  Click here to see an example.
