Re: reputable breeders
well, breeders breed for bettering the standards, and should be breeding to try to achieve show dogs, which, oyu have one or possibly two in a litter if youre lucky, so tons of breeders have pet quality dogs.
are you still interested in a bulldog? american or english?
eta: the best breeders can be found on the akc.org website of course.....

Re: reputable breeders
ok well thats a place to start. im about to watch a movie with DH but im off tomorrow so i can do some looking online. so you want a small dog, preferably a shih tzu.... you like furry guys? i know malteses are expensive. but i can definatly help you out. ill look around tomorrow for some breeders. are you willing to have them fly the dog here? cuz thats your best bet, otherwise your kinda stuck looking at only a few in the area.

Donna, my mom has been looking for a shih-tzu... I have this website saved on my computer for her: http://www.shihtzuandfurbabyrescue.com/available18.htm When we got Gizmo 13 years ago(his mom is shih-tzu, dad unknown) if was from a person whose dog accidently got pregnant and the puppies were sold for only $50 each... you could check newsday or craiglist for situations like this.

Julz..I have checked out that site a LOT. Unfortunatly most of the ones we were interested in, were not good around kids, looking for a stay at home person and or not good with cats, but I check it often!
And Jess...We do like little fluufies yes We are trying to stay away for yorkies, though we LOVE them and pom's because they tend to bark more, and well with apt life, thats rough on the neighbors...Other then that we are open...

You can go through the same breeders. Very few, if any, in a litter would be considered "show" quality and are sold as "pets". They should be cheaper and have the status clearly stated on the papers.

the same breeders that sell show dogs also sell pet dogs. all the same. some of the litter will be show while some will be pets.

AKC is a great start. Also, if you know the breed you want, usually there is a reputable organization that will provide you will the names and numbers of responsible breeders. FYI, H.E.A.R.T. is the non profit organization for Havanese (who are amazing dogs - shameless plug for my pups )
