The main questions for aspiring East European Shepherd breeders are: how to choose a BEO puppy? And where to buy it?
If you decide to purchase an East European shepherd dog, then you should contact a specialized club or amateur dog breeders who are purposefully engaged in the cultivation and breeding of BEO, using efficient dogs with a good appearance or, in other words, exterior and strong psyche. Before buying, you can go to exhibitions and choose the parents of your future pet, if you are ready to wait a while.
When choosing a VEO puppy, you should decide for what needs you are going to purchase it:
- for protection;
- to participate in exhibitions;
- for sports;
- for breeding.
When contacting the club, dog breeders take into account the wishes of buyers and will help you choose the perfect pet.
By the way, keep in mind that puppies of parents of medium exterior are cheaper than from the lines of breeding orientalists. In this case, the working qualities and character of the BEO puppy must be taken into account. If you decide to purchase a dog for breeding work, then you need to be especially careful about the puppy's parents, it is better that his mother and father are from well-known producers, have a good exterior, high show marks.
Decide on the gender of your future pet. If you want a soft and docile dog, more attached to the owner, choose a bitch. They are easier to train and are not inferior in guarding qualities to males. Novice breeders have concerns about the peculiarities of keeping female dogs. You should not panic and be horrified because of this, because bitches pay attention to males only during estrus, and this happens once every six months. Males require a more skillful approach, they are more powerful, larger, more independent and, as producers, are concerned with the issue of reproduction. But the character of the East European Shepherd will depend not only on the biological characteristics of the breed, but also on your desire and desire to raise an adequate dog and a reliable companion.
Take your time when choosing, talk with the owners, look at the mother of puppies VEO, study the documents. Observe these cute lumps, choose a puppy who is interested in everything, who is not afraid to approach people, active and cheerful. Healthy BEO puppies are usually cheerful, well-fed, with cold noses, clean eyes and shiny soft hair.
