Is it free to advertise here?

Yes. A breeder profile and your litter and stud dog adverts are free. Premium profiles, featured placement and sponsored articles are optional paid extras; see pricing.

Do I need a licence to advertise puppies?

In England you need a dog breeding licence from your council if you breed three or more litters in 12 months or breed and sell dogs as a business, and Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland have their own schemes. Licensed breeders show their licence number and issuing council on every advert. Puppies must be at least eight weeks old before they go to new homes.

Is my listing already here?

We add licensed breeders from councils' public registers. Search for your kennel name; if it is listed you can claim it and edit everything.

About the Eurasier

The Eurasier is a modern breed. In 1950s Germany, Professor Julius Wipfel began a breeding programme that crossed the Chow Chow with the German Wolfspitz, aiming for a medium-sized spitz-type family companion. The first litter of these "Wolf-Chows" was born in 1960. The Royal Kennel Club (RKC) says descendants were later mated to a Samoyed to stabilise the type (the Eurasier Society UK dates this to 1972), and that the name reflects the European and Asian stock used. The Fédération Cynologique Internationale recognised the breed in 1973 and the Kennel Club in 2003. In the UK it is in the RKC Utility group. It is not on the Imported Breed Register or the vulnerable native breeds list.

Size and build

The breed standard describes a balanced, medium-sized spitz, slightly longer than it is tall, with pricked triangular ears, dark eyes and a thick tail carried forward over the back or to one side. Dogs stand 52-60 cm and weigh 23-32 kg; bitches stand 48-56 cm and weigh 18-26 kg. The RKC gives a typical lifespan of over 10 years.

Coat and grooming

The coat is a harsh, medium-length topcoat over a thick undercoat, shorter on the muzzle, face, ears and front of the legs, with good feathering on the tail and the backs of the hind legs. The standard accepts all colours and combinations except pure white, white patches on the body, liver and merle; RKC breed standard colours include red, fawn, sable, grey, black, and black and tan. The coat sheds, and the RKC suggests grooming once a week.

Exercise, temperament and home life

The RKC suggests up to an hour of exercise a day and rates the Eurasier as suited to town or country, a small house and a small or medium garden. The standard describes a devoted family companion: self-assured, calm and even-tempered, closely bonded to its family and reserved with strangers without aggression. The Eurasier Society UK adds that most are watchful but fairly quiet, making them watchdogs rather than guard dogs, and that they respond best to calm, consistent training rather than highly repetitive exercises. Like other spitz breeds they can be independent, and keenness to chase rabbits and squirrels varies. The Society notes that temperament varies more between individuals than in many breeds and suggests meeting some adult Eurasiers before deciding. It features on our family pet dogs page.

Eurasier health tests

For the Eurasier, the RKC's Good Practice step before breeding is prioritising genetic diversity. Its Best Practice list adds three screening schemes: elbow grading under the BVA/KC Elbow Dysplasia Scheme, eye testing under the BVA/KC/ISDS Eye Scheme and hip scoring under the BVA/KC Hip Dysplasia Scheme. The RKC says responsible breeders should complete the tests in both lists. Hip and elbow X-rays can only be submitted once a dog is at least a year old and microchipped, and the BVA advises breeding only from dogs with elbow grade 0 and from dogs with hip scores below or close to the breed median.

The Eurasier Society UK asks that any Eurasier considered for breeding is tested for the main conditions found in the breed that may be inherited. Its list covers hips and elbows, patellar luxation (checked by a vet on a conscious dog), eyes (entropion, ectropion, distichiasis and gonioscopy), thyroid function by blood test, and a DNA test for Dandy-Walker-like malformation (DWLM). The Society also recommends COI calculations that cover as much of the pedigree as possible. The RKC does not offer a breed-specific DNA testing package for the Eurasier. The breed is in Breed Watch Category 1.

Choosing a Eurasier breeder

A good Eurasier breeder will be open about health testing and will show you certificates for both parents: hip scores, elbow grades and eye examination results at the least, and ideally the further checks the Eurasier Society UK treats as essential, such as the patella examination, thyroid profile and DWLM DNA test. They should tell you the litter's COI and how it compares with the breed average. The standard describes a dog that bonds closely with its family and is reserved with strangers, so ask how the puppies have been introduced to visitors, household noise and handling. The Eurasier Society UK lists breeders who follow its code of ethics; a breeder outside that list should still be able to give you the same evidence. Meet the puppies with their mother and check the RKC registration. In England, a breeder needs a council licence to breed three or more litters in any 12-month period and sell any of the puppies, or to run a business breeding and advertising dogs for sale. Our buyer safety guide covers viewings and deposits.

Eurasier questions

How big is a Eurasier?

The RKC breed standard gives 52-60 cm and 23-32 kg for dogs, and 48-56 cm and 18-26 kg for bitches. The RKC lists the Eurasier as a medium breed with a typical lifespan of over 10 years.

Do Eurasiers bark a lot?

The Eurasier Society UK says most Eurasiers are alert and watchful but fairly quiet: they usually give a short warning bark when someone approaches and then settle once they see no threat. That makes them watchdogs rather than guard dogs. Some bark more than others, so individual dogs vary.

What health tests should Eurasier parents have?

The RKC's Good Practice step is prioritising genetic diversity, and its Best Practice list adds the BVA/KC hip and elbow schemes and the BVA/KC/ISDS Eye Scheme. The Eurasier Society UK also treats a patella examination, thyroid blood testing, an eye examination including gonioscopy and a DNA test for Dandy-Walker-like malformation (DWLM) as essential before breeding. Ask for the litter's COI as well.

Are Eurasiers good with children and other pets?

The breed standard describes a devoted family companion that is closely attached to its family and reserved with strangers. The Eurasier Society UK says Eurasiers are generally good with children and with animals they see as part of the household, but small children should always be supervised with any dog.
