How can I spot a disreputable breeder of Bernese Mountain Dogs?
There are some common red flags to watch for and they include: Breeding stock imported from Eastern European countries. Credit cards accepted. No questions asked – you have money, they have puppies. Registered names of dogs do not appear on the web site (so you can’t do research on the dogs). Breeder is not a member of the Bernese Mountain Dog Club of America. Neither parent is a champion. Breeder offers multiple breeds. No contract involved. You cannot verify health clearances on the dogs.
