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 Samoyed puppy

Looking for Samoyed puppies for sale? The listings on this page come from breeders who have added their own kennels to caninebreeder.co.uk; we do not sell dogs. A Samoyed puppy grows into a medium-sized, energetic dog whose double coat needs brushing several times a week and sheds most at the change of season, so plan for the time before you plan for the name. Before paying any deposit, ask for both parents' XLHN and XL-PRA DNA results and their hip, elbow and eye certificates, then check them on the RKC Health Test Results Finder. Confirm how the litter will be registered. Visit in person and see the pups with their mother. Be wary of adverts that give little background, and of anyone who asks you nothing about your home. Our buyer safety guide covers deposits, contracts and common scams, and the Samoyed breed guide explains temperament and care in more depth.

Health tests to ask about

The RKC lists five tests at best practice level for the Samoyed: two DNA tests and three British Veterinary Association (BVA) screening schemes.

Both DNA tests concern X-linked conditions. X-linked hereditary nephritis (XLHN) is an inherited kidney disease that, in males and some females, progresses to kidney failure. X-linked progressive retinal atrophy (XL-PRA) makes the light-sensitive cells of the retina break down, so sight worsens and can be lost completely. A male's only X chromosome always comes from his mother, so the dam's result matters as much as the sire's. For both conditions the RKC advises mating only dogs that have tested clear.

For hip and elbow screening, X-rays are taken once the dog is at least a year old and assessed by the BVA's panel of scrutineers. Hip scores run from 0 to 106 and elbow grades from 0 to 3; lower is better. The BVA recommends breeding only from dogs whose hip scores are under, or near, the published breed median, and from dogs with elbow grade 0. The eye scheme is a clinical examination by a panel ophthalmologist. Results for RKC-registered dogs appear on the RKC Health Test Results Finder.

The Samoyed is in Breed Watch Category 1, meaning no breed-specific points of concern have been flagged for judges, and it has a Breed Health Co-ordinator.
