FINDING A GOOD BREEDER
Places to look:
- Check out the Canadian Kennel Club "Finding an Accountable Breeder" page for information and then go to their Breeder's List page for a list of Siberian Husky breeders that are Canadian Kennel Club members.
- You could also check out the List of Breeders on the Siberian Husky Club of Canada website.
These are two good places to start looking for a breeder. At least you know that these breeders are more then likely registering their puppies with the Canadian Kennel Club which is the authorized body in Canada for the registration of purebred dogs.
Many new people coming to me say it doesn't matter if the dog is registered. I try to explain that registration does not cost that much and if a breeder can't be bothered to register their puppies there is a good chance they are also not doing health checks or want to be there after the sale of the pup to answer your questions or help with any problems you are having.
Registration is also your guarantee that what you are buying is indeed a Siberian Husky with the Siberian's temperament, size range, etc.. and not a combination of two dogs that might look like a Siberian but actually are mixed breed dogs which could effect the size, temperament or health issues that might pop up.
Also, in Canada under offences of the Animal Pedigree Act it is actually illegal to represent a dog/puppy as purebred if it is not eligible for registration with the Canadian Kennel Club and the breeder (not the owner) is responsible for paying for the registration of the puppy within 6 months of the sale. The breeder is not allow to charge one price for a pup with registration and another without. Again, if the seller of your pup is breaking this law then is this someone you want to buy your puppy from?
So, IMO, finding a breeder that is registering their puppies with the Canadian Kennel Club is the first step in finding a good breeder. Make sure you read through the information on the Canadian Kennel Club page for more tips on finding a good breeder.

Chimini Siberian Puppy Information
All Chimini puppies are Canadian Kennel Club registered, given at least their first vaccination, vet checked, tattooed/microchipped, and dewormed. They also come with a 4 generation pedigree, a 5 year written health guarantee, an extensive puppy pack and my support for the life of the dog. All dogs owned or coowned by me and used for breeding, have their eyes checked by a certified canine ophthalmologist and hips OFA cleared of hereditary problems.
Timeline to Getting a Puppy: It takes approx. 63 days, or 9 weeks, from time of being bred to the puppies being born, if a girl gets pregnant. Once the pups are born, it is another approx. 9 weeks (could be a couple weeks longer) before the puppies are ready to go to their new homes. So from being bred to ready to going to new homes is about 4 1/2 months.
Please read the Breeding Goals and Obtaining a Puppy pages prior to contacting me about a puppy.
If you want to read what my puppy people think of their Chimini Siberians go to the Chimini Owners - Speak! page.

PLEASE READ THE FOLLOWING INFO BEFORE CONTACTING ME ABOUT A PUPPY
- I do not breed for coat or eye colour. I do breed for working functionality, temperament and health. I spend hours evaluating my pups' structure, movement and temperaments and talking to potential new owners trying to match a pup up with the best home for that pup to be successful in. If colour is someone's only criteria in choosing a pup then I'm not the breeder for that person as I can't guarantee colour and I don't want someone telling me a day or two before the pup is ready for its new home that they do not want the puppy selected for them just because it isn't their preferred colour preference. That would mean that I would have to start the home selection process all over again likely resulting in the pup staying with me several more weeks then it needs to and when it should be in its new home getting all the individual attention it deserves. That is not fair to that pup!
- I do not ship. You must pick up your puppy in person. I want to meet you and for you to meet me and my dogs.
- I do not sell littermates to the same pet home. Although I know there have been examples of success, I feel the risk of littermate syndrome is too great to ignore. I want to give my puppies the best start to life so they have every chance to reach their full potential.
- I prefer to place my puppies within the Maritime Provinces. Why? Because, I believe it is very important that I be able to easily visit my puppy people in person if they need my help and I can’t do that if my puppy is located on the other side of Canada or lives in another country! This is definitely the case when I'm dealing with first time Siberian pet owners or novice breeders. If you are located outside of the Maritimes please first contact breeders within your area that are selling CKC registered puppies to see if you can find a puppy and breeder that is closer to where you live.
- I make all decisions re the placement of my puppies. I have first pick(s), followed by co-own/breeding prospect placements and finally pet home placements. These decisions are normally made between 8-12. Depending on the size of the litter, this means I may not know which, if any, puppies are available to go to pet homes prior to this time. Placement decisions are made based on puppy quality, temperament and suitability for a particular home. My primary concern is for the welfare of my puppies and placing them in homes where I feel they have the very best chance of living out their entire lives in that new home. So If I do not feel I have a suitable puppy to place in a particular applicant's home, then I reserve the absolute right to NOT place a puppy in that applicant's home.
- Puppies going to pet homes are sold on a Canadian Kennel Club Non-Breeding Contract and must also be spayed / neutered by 1 year of age.
