: A reputable breeder will gladly show you the pet and its living conditions in real-time via video chat to prove they actually have the animal.
: Sellers who refuse to let you see the facility or the mother dog.
: Copy parts of the pet's description or search for the breeder’s phone number and photos in Google to see if they are reused across different sites, which is a common scam tactic.
: Insisting on meeting in a public space or airport instead of their home.
: Look for breeders registered with official organizations like the American Kennel Club (AKC) or the Cat Fanciers' Association (CFA).
