What makes a Siberian Husky breeder a good breeder?

This list was copied from http://www.vipoodle.org/ and I think it summarizes very well what kind of breeder you should be looking for.

The reputable breeder feels responsibility toward the breed itself, toward the dogs he breeds and to the people who have dogs of his breeding. He spends astounding amounts of his time and money on matters he thinks are for the best interests of his breed.

It is this awareness of responsibility that marks the difference between the true breeder and mere “puppy-raiser”. The breeder is an artist, motivated by a drive to create perfection; the puppy raisers and the dog dealers are motivated by the desire to make money.

Siberian Husky Breeders and Puppy Mills

People who wish to buy purebred dogs might think of pet stores as the first source of affordable and available puppies. I strongly suggest you do not select this alternative. I seldom tour pet stores, and I do not know exact prices for any given breed, however, I know their stock generally does not come cheap. Their animals might be a few hundred dollars cheaper than what a breeder would charge, could come with pedigree papers, however you won’t really know a puppy’s history and background. You won’t know what the parents were like, nor if they had a good temperament and/or health.
