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 Sloughi stud dog

With only a handful of Sloughis registered in the UK each year, every mating shapes the breed's future here, so stud choice deserves real care. The RKC's baseline recommendation is to prioritise genetic diversity: check the proposed pairing with the RKC's inbreeding coefficient calculator, aim at or below the breed average, and avoid relying on one popular male. If a stud dog lives abroad or was imported, check with the RKC that his registration will allow the litter to be registered here. The Sloughi Club recommends PRA testing, a thyroid TgAA test and a full DNA health panel, so ask the stud owner for copies of each result. Haplotype testing, which needs samples from both parents, can add information about the risk of autoimmune problems in the puppies.

Health tests for a Sloughi stud

The RKC places the Sloughi in Breed Watch Category 1, meaning no breed-specific points of concern have been identified for judges beyond the breed standard. There is no breed-specific RKC DNA testing package, and the RKC's good-practice recommendation before breeding is to prioritise genetic diversity. With so few registrations each year, the UK population is tiny, so every choice of mate, including the use of imported dogs, has a real effect on the level of inbreeding.

The Sloughi Club's health and genetics page goes further. It recommends PRA (progressive retinal atrophy) testing, a thyroid TgAA test and a full DNA health test from a laboratory such as Laboklin or Wisdom, rather than a basic breed-ancestry test. It also mentions haplotype testing, offered by Feragen in Austria, which indicates how likely a pairing is to produce puppies prone to autoimmune problems; both parents need to be tested. For health questions, the RKC breed page directs owners to its Health and Breeding Support team.
