Why do you have to pay for PuppyFind?
PuppyFind is a national website that allows breeders to list their dogs for sale. However, if you're serious about trying to sell your animals, you'll presumably pay the fee to make access to your listings more readily available. If you have just one litter of puppies, you can list for one month at the $29.99 fee.
How do you know if a breeder is legit?
Ask if the breeder is a member of an AKC-affiliated club and contact that club to verify membership or check recent listings of available AKC Litters from breeders. You can also check with the BBB (www.bbb.org) and the AKC (919-233-9767) to see if there are any complaints about the breeder.

How can you tell if a breeder is a puppy mill?
- Pet stores: they all buy their puppies from a puppy farm, they are not registered breeders.
- If the parents or puppies don't seem accustomed to human interaction, it is most likely a puppy mill.
- If the puppies and/or parents seem unhealthy or unclean.
