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.

We add licensed breeders from councils' public registers. Search for your kennel name; if it is listed you can claim it and edit everything.
Buying a Grand Bleu De Gascogne puppy
Grand Bleu de Gascogne puppies for sale
Grand Bleu de Gascogne puppies are very hard to find in Britain. RKC figures show one registration in each of 2016, 2018 and 2024, and none recorded in the other years from 2016 to 2025. Expect to register your interest well ahead, and to hear about planned matings rather than puppies ready to go. Ask each breeder how the litter will be registered and what its inbreeding coefficient is, and visit to meet the mother if the litter is in the UK. By law every puppy must be microchipped and registered by eight weeks old. Be realistic about more than two hours of exercise a day and a hound voice. Read our buyer safety guide before sending any money, and look at other hound breeders, including the smaller Basset Bleu de Gascogne, if you are still deciding.
Health tests to ask about
Grand Bleu de Gascogne health and testing
On the RKC's Breed Watch scheme the Grand Bleu de Gascogne sits in Category 1, meaning no breed-specific points of concern have been flagged for show judges beyond what the breed standard already covers. The standard itself warns against excessive loose skin on the head. Category 1 concerns visible conformation only and says nothing about inherited disease in individual hounds.
The RKC breed page gives one Good Practice point for the breed, prioritising genetic diversity, while the RKC Health Standard names no health tests or screening schemes for it at either Good or Best Practice level. The RKC has no breed-specific DNA package for it (individual tests can be bought) and there are no additional breed-specific breeding restrictions. With a UK population this small, keeping inbreeding low is the main practical tool: the RKC's genetic diversity guidance and its inbreeding coefficient calculator help breeders aim for a litter figure at or below the breed average. For breed health queries, the RKC breed page directs people to its Health and Breeding Support Team.
