Frequently Asked Questions

Can I edit my listing after publishing?
Yes, you can log into your account and edit details, photos, or price at any time. Updates may be reviewed again before going live.

How long will my ad be active?
Each ad is live for 1 month (€14.99). You can renew it anytime from your account if your dog hasn’t been rehomed yet.

Do I need to upload any documents to sell puppies?
For most sellers, no documents are required — only your dog’s microchip number must be entered.

However, if you plan to sell 6 or more puppies per year, Irish law requires you to register with the Department of Agriculture Registered Sellers ID or as a Dog Breeding Establishment (for breeders with 6+ breeding females). In this case, you must upload your registration document in your My AccountSeller ID Status section before publishing listings.

When will my ad be visible?
All listings are reviewed by the Dogsy team before going live. This usually takes a short time, as we check that all legal and safety requirements are met.

Can buyers contact me directly?
Yes. Your verified phone number will be displayed in the ad, and you can also enable WhatsApp for easier communication.
