The need to find out the breed of a puppy arises if you picked up an animal on the street or you are offered to take a puppy of a particular breed, but you are not sure that you can reliably determine whether you are really a Dalmatian, and not a mongrel.
Instructions
Step 1
If you plan to purchase a dog of a certain breed in advance, then you should first study the literature and specialized sites on the Internet in order to understand how the puppy should look.
Step 2
If you are not confident in your abilities, then seek help from a professional breeder of the right breed or a kennel club. There are breeds (for example, the German Shepherd), which at an early age are very difficult to distinguish from ordinary mongrels. This is used by unscrupulous animal sellers. In order not to fall for their bait, you need to look at the puppy with a specialist who understands this issue.
Step 3
In the case when the puppy came to your home by accident, you can do the following: first, take the newly-born pet to the veterinary clinic so that the specialists examine him for the presence of diseases. Perhaps the doctor will tell you what kind of "miracle" you brought from the street.
Step 4
Another option is to take the puppy to a kennel club. They will also help you determine the breed of the dog.
Step 5
You can try to search for information yourself. There are many sites on the Internet with photographs dedicated to almost all the breeds known in the world.
Step 6
It often happens that a found puppy may be a mestizo, that is, it contains the blood of both a thoroughbred dog and a mongrel. In this case, experts are trying to determine what kind of "noble" blood flows in your pet's veins.
Step 7
Even if the purchased or found puppy turned out to be not a dwarf spitz at all, but an ordinary "yard terrier", you should not be upset, because the dog's love and devotion to the owner do not at all depend on the breed.
