Such publications include the Crufts and Discover Dogs showguides, Kennel Club information guides, and much more. This is one of the Kennel Club s biggest campaigns which focuses on promoting responsible puppy buying and helps to stop puppy farming. During PAW 2015, we posted about PAW and buying from an Assured Breeder 167 times on our social media pages, which lead to a reach of 425,518 people. Thousands of posters, flyers and window stickers promoting PAW were distributed to KCAI trainers/training clubs, veterinary practices nationwide, breeders, breed clubs and dog owners. Nearly 300k s were sent to dog owners, breed clubs, KCAI trainers, KC e-news subscribers and vets asking them to get involved with PAW, to help promote the message of responsible puppy buying. Puppy buyers often struggle to separate good breeders from bad breeders, enabling puppy farmers and other unscrupulous breeders to flourish giving the dog breeding industry a bad name and puppies a bleak future. Every member on the Assured Breeder Scheme follows the responsible steps of dog breeding and all members have to be inspected by the Kennel Club, as a UKAS accredited body, before joining and at least once every three years after that.

2 As a breeder myself, I know the time and effort that is necessary to breed puppies successfully. There are many breeders who, like myself, place the health, tempera ment and happiness of their puppies above other considerations, and go to exceptional efforts to ensure that their puppies are placed in permanent loving homes. Unfortunately not all breeders share the sa me values. There are others who care little for the health and welfare of their dogs and puppies, and who are motivated by other issues such as profit. Buying a puppy is an important and complex decision and it is often difficult for the puppy buyer to find a breeder who really cares. The Assured Breeder Scheme has been designed specifically to identify those good breeders who adopt good standards and guide puppy owners to members of the scheme and therefore, taking the worry out of buying a puppy for potential new owners. Join today and help us set the standards for good breeders and help us put puppy farmers out of business.
