subject to a variety of health concerns. Your

Ibizan Hound puppy, check around with several
breeders and ask about the various health issues

reputable breeder should be well-versed in the
health concerns and should be able to give you
more details, as well as showing you the sire
and dam of your potential puppy. Some of the
health problems that can affect Ibizan Hounds
include:

Now that you have decided that the Ibizan Hound is the right
breed for you, it's time to start the process of finding a
responsible Ibizan Hound breeder from which to buy a healthy,
well-socialized puppy. Not all breeders are alike; there are good
breeders - and bad breeders. Don't be in a hurry to buy the first
Ibizan Hound puppy you find at the cheapest price available! To buy
a puppy from a responsible Ibizan Hound breeder, you may need to pay
more and wait longer. The additional money and waiting time will be
well worth it. Buy a puppy in haste from a newspaper ad, pet store
or "backyard breeder", and you'll likely also purchase a great deal
of additional expense and heartache, since you will likely end up
falling in love with a puppy with health and behavioral problems
that will likely need special care, plenty of veterinary visits,
regular medication - or even euthanasia. But do your homework and
find a responsible, caring Ibizan Hound breeder who home-raises
their puppies with love, screens their breeding dogs for health
problems, offers a health guarantee and post sale support, and who
genuinely loves the Ibizan Hound breed and is in it for the love of
the breed, rather than profit, and you can be fairly well assured of
getting a healthy, happy, long lived and affectionate family
companion that will provide you and your family with many years of
joy, laughter and companionship.
Further information about choosing a responsible breeder...
Here are a few breeder directory sites that we recommend. These
sites attempt to screen advertisers to ensure that the breeders
listed are responsible and sell healthy, home-raised Ibizan Hound
puppies to carefully screened buyers. There are many, many sites now
online that advertise dog breeders - many are a Mecca for puppy
mills and backyard breeders. We recommend that you steer clear of
these resources in favor of sites that are more selective in the
breeders whom they allow to advertise.
