Purchasing a Puppy
ON PURCHASING A SHORTHAIR PUPPY
 Prior to deciding to purchase a Shorthair there are some facts to consider:
Shorthairs are extremely energetic dogs requiring exercise and mental stimulation. This can be met by a daily run and some kind of games such as fetch, hide and seek, and training for any one of the competitions available which are listed on this website. A Shorthair left to its own devices for long periods without human companionship can become quite a handful and possibly destructive.

Children are a Shorthair's best friend but as they can get quite boisterous it is recommended that children always be supervised when playing with or feeding their pet. As Shorthairs are hunting dogs, they can be prone to chasing small animals, especially cats. In rural areas it is important to realise they may also worry sheep, chickens, etc. Therefore puppies must be socialised with different types of animals from a young age and trained not to chase anything.
Why a VCA Reg istered Pup?
