Breed Center

You want a puppy and you want it now, but puppy-buying time is not the time to indulge your need for instant gratification.  Sure, the newspaper might be filled with "puppies for sale" ads and that pet store puppy may be cute as a button, but the very best source for a healthy, beautiful purebred dog with a good temperament is a good hobby breeder.

Ask purebred fanciers why they prefer known breeds to mixed-breeds and they’ll tell you it has a lot to do with predictability: with mutts, they say, you never know exactly what you’re getting, but with specific AKC-recognized breeds, you know precisely what to expect in terms of behavior, temperament, and looks.
