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.

Using a German Pinscher stud dog

This page lists German Pinscher stud dogs offered by UK owners. Because the RKC lists no breed-specific screening for the breed, the most useful check is genetic. Put both dogs through the RKC's inbreeding coefficient calculator (Mate Select) and aim for as low a litter figure as you can. The RKC's genetic diversity guidance warns that males used for many litters spread hidden recessive genes through a breed, so ask how many litters the dog has already sired. Check that he is registered with The Royal Kennel Club, look him up on the Health Test Results Finder for any tests his owner has chosen to do, and ask how he behaves with people and other dogs. Agree the fee, any pick-of-litter terms and what happens if no puppies arrive in writing before the mating. Our stud dogs and stud services guide has more.

Health tests for a German Pinscher stud

The RKC does not list any breed-specific screening scheme or DNA test for the German Pinscher. Its only Good Practice recommendation for the breed is prioritising genetic diversity, and no Best Practice tests are listed. The RKC's guidance explains that every dog carries hidden recessive genes, that a stud dog used for a large number of litters spreads his silent faults through a breed, and that a puppy is affected only when it inherits a faulty copy from each parent. It advises limiting how often any one male is used and running inbreeding calculators before choosing a mate.

The RKC has no breed-specific DNA testing package for the German Pinscher, although its individual DNA tests are available, and there are no extra breed-specific breeding restrictions. The breed is in Breed Watch Category 1, which means no breed-specific points of concern have been flagged for judges beyond those covered by the standard. The RKC is moving the actions from its earlier Breed Health and Conservation Plans into a new breeding for health framework and says it will update how this applies to each breed, so check the breed page for changes. No health record can guarantee a puppy's future health.
