| What's the Youngest Stud That You Would Consider Using? My daughter really wants to use my male to breed with her female but i am not sure that i would feel comfortable with this since hes only 6 months.whats the youngest stud that you have used?the youngest that i have used was 9 months and it ended with good result.we have had all tests done so we know about both them physicaly but not sure about his age. |

| I had never heard that about AKC....why is this? To the original poster, I have always heard that atleast 12 months is best. Last edited by TammyJM; 07-27-2007 at 11:35 AM. |

| i have only used mine at a 1 1/2. first of all due to the maturity of the sperm and the dog. i am scared anything under this age, the dog acts too much like a puppy still and will want to play instead of getting down to business.

| this is correct about akc. if you read akc, they actually prefer a dog of 2 yrs of age that way they have all the testing completed before they stud. some testing cannot be completed until the age of 2.

| You really want to wait until the stud is fully mature. Reason why - to see how he turned out! Is he worthy of breeding. About 1.5 years is soonest for me. T. |

| What exactly do you mean by testing?. I've never heard of any testing when dogs stud, at least not here in Spain. Can you tell me what it's about? |
