Check on-line under Canton Trade Days for dates but generally it is the first weekend of the month after the first Monday of the month. Dont know if I worded that right. It is not on Monday, best time to go is Saturday because, though they are open on Friday, not many animal sellers are there until Saturday. There is a vet on site that you can pay to ck out your puppy before you leave, his regular office is in Gilmer. Don't touch the animals unless you use sanitizer afterwards, rumors are that there is lots of parvo around there. I would NOT personally buy any of the chickens there, have seen dead ones in the pen with live ones and they are all squished into too small of cages for transport. Most of the chickens I saw there look to be in pretty sad shape. Most puppies there come from puppy mills and are not any cheaper than those on Craig's List. That being said, I DID buy my puppy there but she was not a supposedly pure bread and not up in the area of Dog Alley that all the breeders stay in. She was in a booth that the family sales toys primarily and was the product of their family pet. I made sure I went really early so I could find one that hand't been handled much and had not been out in the heat long. She is healthy and thinks she is my baby.
