FREE · NOTHING TO BUY
When a buyer asks an AI which breeders to contact, does your name come up?
I will ask it, on your breed and your state, and send you what it actually said — word for word, including the answers where you were not mentioned. It costs you nothing and there is nothing to decline at the end of it.

Why I bother running this
I breed and board dogs. When someone asked me last year whether ChatGPT would send buyers my way, I did not know, so I went and found out — and then ran the same five questions across twelve states, on all three assistants, to see whether what I found was normal.
Across 180 answers in 12 states on 2 September 2026, on these same three assistants, the American Kennel Club was named in 146 of them — about four in five. Asked who the good breeders are, these systems reach for clubs, registries and directories far more readily than for anybody’s kennel name.
They do name breeders, though, and that is the part worth understanding: ten websites carry 1,809 of the 5,076 sources those answers were built from, and one of them is quoted in 84 of the 180 answers. Who gets named is largely decided by a very short list of sources. So if your name does not come back, you are in ordinary company, and I will tell you so on the page.
The three assistants also disagree with each other, badly, on the same question on the same day. That is exactly why I ask all three rather than one.
The five questions
Your breed and your state go into each one. These are the questions people ask when they are ready to buy, not when they are browsing.
- Who are the best [your breed] breeders in [your state]?
- Where can I find a health-tested [your breed] puppy in [your state]?
- Which [your breed] breeders in [your state] do OFA health testing?
- How do I find a reputable [your breed] breeder near [your town]?
- I want a [your breed] puppy in [your state]. Which breeders should I contact?
What comes back
A single page, and it is mostly the raw answers
- Whether you were named, question by question — and if not, said plainly rather than dressed up.
- Whether it read your website while answering. That is a separate thing from naming you, and the gap between the two is usually the interesting part.
- Which sites it did lean on to answer — the clubs, directories and other kennels it pulled from, with how often.
- Every answer in full, exactly as it came back. Nothing summarised, nothing trimmed, nothing improved.
- What was not tested, stated as plainly as what was: three assistants named on the page, one day, five questions — and the ones I did not ask, which are Google’s AI Overviews, Gemini, Copilot and Grok.
If a call fails it is reported as a failed call, not counted as you being absent. And if you come back well named, that is what the page will say — I am not going to manufacture a problem for you.
What happens after
I send you the page. If it is interesting to you, reply and we will talk about it; if it is not, that is a perfectly normal outcome and you owe me nothing. I do not phone people who have not asked me to.
Nothing here is a guarantee. Not a mention, not a citation, not a ranking, not an enquiry, not a sale. This is a measurement of what three named assistants said on one day, and these systems vary between runs. Anyone promising you an AI mention is selling you something I cannot see how to deliver.
Ask for yours
Six things, because six things is all the check needs. I run them by hand, one at a time.
One breed per request — two programmes means two requests, because the questions and the answers are completely different. Your address is used to send you the result and nothing else unless you tick the box. I do not sell, share or rent it.
