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.

Buying a Doxiepoo puppy
Doxiepoo puppies for sale may also be listed as Doxiedoodles, Dachshundpoos or simply Dachshund x Poodle, so search under each name. Before you commit, ask which Dachshund variety and which Poodle size were used, since that shapes the likely adult size and coat. Ask to see the parents' health results: the Dachshund's IVDD spinal grade and PRA (cord1) DNA test, the Poodle's prcd-PRA DNA test, and eye examinations for both. Meet the mother with her litter where the puppies were born. As a crossbreed the Doxiepoo cannot join the RKC Breed Register, though the RKC Activity Register accepts crossbreeds for activities such as obedience and agility. Puppies should be at least eight weeks old and already microchipped when they go home. Choose on the health and temperament of the parents rather than on colour or appearance.
Health tests to ask about
The Doxiepoo has no RKC health tests of its own because it is not a recognised breed, so look for the tests the RKC lists for each parent.
For the Miniature Smooth Haired Dachshund, the Good Practice test is spinal X-ray screening under the RKC IVDD scheme, run in partnership with Dachshund Health UK. Dogs are screened once, between 24 and 48 months old, and graded 0 to 3 by the number of disc calcifications; the scheme is for RKC-registered Dachshunds. A 2018 breed council survey quoted by the RKC reported IVDD in 29.9% of Miniature Smooth Haired Dachshunds over three years old. Best Practice adds the PRA (cord1) DNA test and an eye examination. The RKC will not register Dachshund puppies from two dapple parents because of risks to sight and hearing.
For the Toy Poodle, the Good Practice test is the prcd-PRA DNA test, with eye and hip screening as Best Practice. The RKC describes both forms of PRA as recessive: a dog develops the disease only if it inherits two copies of the same faulty gene, one from each parent.
