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.

About the Hound group

The Hound group covers breeds developed to hunt, broadly in two ways. Sighthounds such as the Greyhound, Whippet, Saluki and Deerhound hunt by sight and speed. Scenthounds such as the Beagle, Basset Hound, Bloodhound and Foxhound follow a scent trail, often in packs and over long distances.

Hounds were bred to work independently of a handler, so many have a strong chase instinct and need secure exercise areas and patient recall training. Sighthounds are often calm at home but can be sensitive to cold; scenthounds tend to be vocal and single-minded when following a scent.
