Hi all. I have recently started selling dog/puppy starter sets on ebay/dog shows etc and has been going really well but someone has recommended I get in contact with dog breeders to see if they would like me to supply them with starter packs to sell with there puppys and to be honest I don't know where to start! If anyone has any ideas or may know of any contacts please pm me. Just a sample picture below of my toy dog starter sets but there is various to choose from.     |

Do you make the products yourself?

Bow that's a brilliant idea! You could make a fortune if you approached pet stores with your idea too, just do a bit of research to make sure they dont already have a similar product but it's a fab idea! Wish you was selling your starter kits 5 years ago!  I wish you the best of luck, it's a really good idea x |

I wouldn't contact a pet store, think they would just use your idea with their own products.
Do you make the products yourself?
I'd try breeders off the kennel club, or what about setting up an ad on sites where dogs are forsale?
Good luck

The dog beds look lovely.
Could you try a local dog training group perhaps?

Most breeders have deals with insurance companies and dog food manufactrurers who supply puppy packs/freebies in return for the fee they pay, and promoting their products. This is usually 4 weeks insurance and a bag of dog food and maybe a toy or blanket You could try contacting the Kennel Club and ask if you can advertise your packs on their website, or they ay be able to advise you. Your packs look very nice, and it also depends on how much they are as most breeders are out for as much profit they can make as raising litters of pups can be expensive, when done properly.

I buy the products in and put them into sets and sell them elmere. They range from £17 too £22 depending on which set it is. Many thanks for the tips/advice, a few things too look at |

They look very nice Bow and ideal for someone just getting a puppy If you look on Epupz thats where lots of breeders sell their puppies so you might get some luck trying on there |

You could try looking through dog sale ads and contact the breeders advertising on there x
