| Breeding questions...how to pick the right male? Well hello everyone, I haven't been on here in a while but I have a few questions to ask about breeding mates. What age is a male recommended to stop being a stud, does age determine or effect the pups quality and/or the amount of litters he's help produce? How do you determine which male to breed your female with? Are there any signs that will tell you which one she prefers or which male is more interested? I've bred once before with one of the two males in question & the other male is his son, but this is a different female & my "grandson" & her tried the first time I noticed she was in heat with no success, it's been another year so I'm trying them again but don't know if I should just let his dad do his thing? Hope all is well with everyone! ~Teresa in Texas Breeding my Layla (pictured in avatar) 5.7oz Layla Female 2.5 yrs old 4.4oz Cartier Male Dad 3.5 yrs old 5.2oz Dolce Male Son 5 yrs old

| Yes, definitely post this to the breeder's forum, and I assume that the weights you list for your dogs are in pounds and ounces (at least I hope so!). |
