At Puppies and Rescues, we’re committed to connecting families with healthy, happy puppies for sale from only the most trusted breeders in the United States. We do not support puppy mills — instead, we partner exclusively with responsible breeders who prioritize the health, safety, and well-being of every puppy.
Every breeder in our network goes through a strict vetting process before they are approved. This process ensures that when you adopt a puppy through Puppies and Rescues, you can feel confident knowing your new companion comes from a safe and ethical environment.
Our screening includes:
- Background checks – We research public records and conduct online due diligence.
- Inspection records – We review all USDA and state inspection reports to ensure a 100% clean record with zero violations.
- Facility inspection – Breeders must allow a visual inspection of their facility, to confirm it is clean, safe, and well-managed. We do not purchase puppies from brokers or breeders who refuse an inspection.
Veterinary care – Every breeder must provide a health history that contains up to date vaccination information and health history.
When you choose Puppies and Rescues, you’re choosing peace of mind. We guarantee that your puppy’s breeder has passed our thorough background check and has upheld a perfect USDA and state compliance record.
This commitment ensures that every puppy in our care and every puppy we match with a family comes from a safe, responsible, and loving environment.
