Crafting the Perfect About Page: Building Trust with Potential Puppy Buyers

Your website’s About page isn’t just a formality — it’s your first handshake with a future puppy family. Whether you breed Labradors, Frenchies, Bernedoodles, or Chihuahuas, your About page matters. It’s where trust begins.

1. Why Your About Page Matters

When people search for a puppy, they aren't just evaluating the puppies — they're evaluating YOU. Your About page answers the question: "Can I trust this breeder with my next family member?"

2. The Power of Storytelling in Breeder Marketing

Everyone loves a good story. Share yours:

• How you fell in love with your breed

• Your passion for health and temperament

• Your mission as a responsible breeder

Quick Tip: Use Canva’s "Magic Write" feature to help you draft your story if you're not sure where to start!

3. Key Elements Every Dog Breeder About Page Needs

• Your Breeder Story: Why and how you started

• Breeding Philosophy: Health, genetics, socialization priorities

• Location: Where you are and whether you offer delivery/transport

• Photos/Videos: Authentic visuals of you with your dogs

• Trust Indicators: Certifications, memberships, health guarantees

• Easy Contact: Make it simple to reach out

4. How to Use Photos, Videos, and AI Tools to Build Trust

Photos: Include lifestyle images, not just formal posed shots. Puppies playing, moms nursing, you interacting lovingly with the dogs.

Videos: Vertical videos (Reels, Shorts, TikToks) are GOLD. A 30-second intro video made in Canva (with your logo and subtitles) can instantly boost connection.

AI Tools:

• ChatGPT: Helps you brainstorm your "About" story fast

• Canva Magic Write: Draft catchy captions, video scripts, and story highlights

5. Real Examples: About Pages That Work

Example 1: Happy Tails Golden Retrievers shares a heartfelt story, a casual "meet the breeder" video, and puppy socialization images.

Example 2: Willow Ridge Frenchies showcases certifications, awards, testimonials, and a behind-the-scenes tour video filmed on a smartphone.

Example 3: Blue Sky Poodles uses adorable vertical videos on their About page to introduce each adult dog and their roles in the family.

• Mistake: No real photos of you with your dogs

• Fix: Add at least 2-3 candid shots.
