Printed Business Cards

Some people are very serious about their pooches and actually make a living from breeding and selling dogs. The dog breeder’s business card should show quality, professionalism and experience. Anyone in the dog business should have a stack of business cards that inform old and new clients about their specialty programs and skills.

Breed is a very important aspect of the dog breeder’s business card and any sort of generic wording or design will not serve you well. Be sure to include images and wording that point to specific breeds you specialize in as well as any enhancement techniques used in the process.  Information is key to a successfully designed card.

Background designs should set a balance between friendly and eye catching with qualified and certified. Use simple focused themes such as paw prints or plain background colors. Geometric shapes are okay if you intend to use very contrasting font colors for the text. Be sure that any background design you choose doesn’t detract from the information.

Along with the usual contact information on a dog breeder’s business card, use bullet points to list the types of breeds you specialize in as well as any techniques associated with your breeding style. Certification by accredited institutions always looks good on a business card that deals with the welfare of animals.

Pictures on a dog breeder’s business card should of course features dogs of the specific breed. Add a personal touch by featuring your own dog or tell a story by putting an interesting case study animal on the card. Avoid using clip art or cartoonish mages as this may make people think there s a negative reason you have chosen not to feature the dogs you breed.

Distribute dog breeder business card at the vet’s office, pet food store, pet supplies store, dog parks and pet cemeteries.
