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.

Buying a Norwegian Elkhound puppy

Looking for Norwegian Elkhound puppies for sale? The Elkhound is a sturdy grey hunting spitz with a thick coat, an independent mind and a resonant bark, so it is worth meeting the breed before committing. Breeders listed on caninebreeder.co.uk show their name, website, social media, location and categories, which makes it easier to shortlist kennels and contact them yourself. When you enquire, ask for the parents' DNA results for POAG-2 and prcd-PRA, which the RKC recommends as a minimum for this breed, along with eye and hip results. Visit the litter with its mother, and expect your puppy to be at least eight weeks old before it comes home. The RKC lists a large house and garden as the right home for the breed. We are an independent directory and do not inspect or endorse breeders, so please make your own checks.

Health tests to ask about

The RKC lists five health tests for the Norwegian Elkhound. At Good Practice level, which the RKC describes as the minimum before breeding, are DNA tests for primary open angle glaucoma (POAG-2) and progressive retinal atrophy (prcd-PRA), alongside prioritising genetic diversity. At Best Practice level it adds a DNA test for chondrodysplasia (CDSL), an eye examination under the BVA/RKC/ISDS Eye Scheme and hip scoring under the BVA/RKC Hip Dysplasia Scheme.

POAG is a small rise in pressure inside the eye that gradually causes blindness, usually seen between three and six years of age. prcd-PRA makes the cells of the retina degenerate, starting with night blindness. CDSL is a form of dwarfism that shortens the limbs. All three are autosomal recessive, so carriers show no signs but can pass the gene on, and should only be mated to clear dogs. The Elkhound is also on the Eye Scheme's January 2026 list of breeds with known inherited eye disease, for progressive retinal atrophy. The RKC advises an eye examination within the 12 months before mating, and a dog must be at least one year old for hip scoring, where lower scores are better. The breed is in Breed Watch Category 1. Health testing lowers risk but cannot guarantee a healthy puppy.
