Tips For Getting A Dog From Dog Breeders
One thing you must know before you bring home a puppy is they are fast learners. That makes an early training paramount prior to housebreaking a puppy, which is exposing the puppies to constructive socialization and toilet-training. Dog breeders with a fair amount of knowledge on the canine psychology will know that and whether the person abides by the rule or not sets the mark for him or her.
Accepting a pup from a dog shelter is an act of generosity in a distress situation. Similarly, the family member or a friend is typically frantic to find homes for an entire litter. Pet shops and other retailers are not specialists, have little knowledge of the breed and usually lack specific knowledge of the individual pup.
By contrast, buying a dog from a breeder has several advantages. A pedigree dog is more predictable across a whole range of factors such as personality, dimensions, and fur quality. In other words, buying a pedigree pure bred puppy leaves less to chance. There are almost 200 separate dog breeds usually recognized by dog authorities making it likely there is a breed that meets the preferences of any prospective pup owner.
To be classified as a pedigree dog, the animal must meet several criteria such as having documented parentage, both parents must be of the same breed, that breed must be recognized by authorities, the breeder must be registered with authorities, the dog parents must also be registered with authorities, and the pup must have a pedigree line tracing back at least three generations.
The Internet has made it easy to connect with canine breeders. Dog breeder directories have been created online in many countries across the globe. For each breeder, the directories will provide details of their breeding philosophy, size of kennel, full contact details, and so on.
Dog breeders are keen to sign themselves onto these directories as a means of self-promotion. The directories usually allow users to identify individual breeders by breed. Most directories will also have a Puppy Listings tab. It cannot get much easier than that.

Dog Breeder Listings Q&A
how much is a purebred border collie puppy?
I want a pre bred black and white border male collie from a reputable breeder with certificates to prove both parents were DNA tested and free from CEA, TNS and CL tested to insure the health of the dog. I found a website which had a lot of listings for them but there were no prices placed. Can anyone tell me a specific range of price for this type of quality dog within Victoria? If i left any important details out please let me know I'll write them in additional details.
Well done on doing your research prior to getting a puppy. All these tests are absolutely relevant and what all reputable breeders have in place before breeding. Couple that with hip scores and annual eye tests, and more recently a gonioscopy test. The link below will explain this, and the need for this came about by an Australian bred dog coming into the UK, via Belgium.
I have no idea what breeders in Australia charge, but a similar bred dog in the UK would be around UKP500 these days.
The best place to search would be specific breed club websites and contacts.
Good luck !

Owner/breeder/trainer of Border Collies in the UK for over 30 years.
ETA: Bobbie-L WHY NOT DNA TEST? You cannot guarantee any of the genetic problems without testing, SURELY your trainer AT LEAST tests for CEA????
In the UK the ISDS will not even register a litter now without this! I gave up playing russian roulette with genetics long ago. And please do not tell me that BC's who only herd sheep do not get the same inherited problems, because they most certainly do!
p.sp. PLUS the airfare for the asker from AUSTRALIA TO IDAHO ! lol.
