How to recognise reputable Belgian Griffon breeders

Our concierge only points you to sources whose breeders meet our minimum criteria: breeding under binding breeding regulations, breed-specific health examinations of the parent dogs, and a protected kennel name. A written purchase contract is usually part of it too – have each breeder show you the documentation in person.

In Germany, these requirements are met above all by breeders organised in the member clubs of the VDH (German Kennel Club): health examinations of the parent dogs, protected kennel names and inspection of the breeding premises are mandatory there.

We show the external source in your dashboard only after the concierge check is complete. External listings are not an HonestDog assessment or guarantee.

What to look for in your Belgian Griffon search

Health tests of the parent dogs

Ask specifically about the breed-typical examinations of the parent dogs and have the certificates shown to you. Reputable breeders present them unprompted.

Visit in person

Visit the kennel, meet the mother dog and see how the puppies grow up. No reputable breeder hands over a puppy in a parking lot.

Written purchase contract

A complete purchase contract states the chip number, vaccination status, handover age (8 weeks at the earliest) and what happens if you can no longer keep the dog.

Realistic expectations

Responsible breeders have waiting lists – often several months. Suspiciously cheap or constantly available puppies are a warning sign of disreputable puppy mills.

Why are there no Belgian Griffon breeders here?

HonestDog only lists breeders who registered themselves and passed our verification. For Belgian Griffon, that's currently none or only a few. Instead of showing you just anything, we tell you honestly where to keep searching among breeders who meet our minimum criteria.

What exactly does the concierge do?

You create your buyer profile and we set up your Belgian Griffon search alert. We then review a possible external source. Within 28 days you'll receive an email; your recommendation, health guide and breeder questions will be waiting in your dashboard.

Is HonestDog affiliated with the VDH?

No. We simply link to the VDH's public puppy listings because breeders of VDH member clubs breed under binding breeding regulations. There is no business relationship, and HonestDog receives no commission.

Does the concierge cost anything?

No. The profile, the search alert and all information are completely free and non-binding. You can delete your search alert anytime in your dashboard.
