Don't buy a puppy from a puppy farm!
If you want a puppy please don't buy one without proper research into the breeder. Puppy farms keep dogs in appalling conditions and sell puppies that are often unhealthy. Consider rescuing a dog from a shelter, maybe?
At present, these puppy farms are mating many different breeds and charging huge amounts of money for them.Please be warned the breeds are often not what they claim them to be.

Why is this important?
Mainly because the dogs are being 'farmed' in pitiful conditions, whilst the breeders will pretend that they are bred at home with mother and father available to see. This isn't the case. They are bred in disgusting dirty outhouses, and brought into the 'home' to be viewed by prospective buyers. Often the puppies are diseased, and come from such distressed backgrounds that they cannot easily settle in a home without a lot of additional care and veterinary expenses.
