I'm looking for a bedlington and wondering about wether to go through epupz or Horse & Hounds, or if it just safer to go via breeders recommended by the bedlington club.
Personally, I think if it's your first of any breed, then you need to go through the breed clubs to find reputable breeders. If you are very knowledgable about a breed, particularly their health problems, then you're probably OK to look elsewhere. Are you aware of any Bedlington health problems?
Ive read about copper toxicosis, but I am SO far from being knwledgeable, because I'm new to the breed, so I will go with your views, and phone the breed clubs on monday. I saw some ads on epupz and was tempted, is all...
Don't buy throug epupz, I doubt that many of the dogs advertised on that site have any of the health tests ane moreso that many of the people on there will know what problems their own breeds have.
Through the Club in my opinion is the safest option.
