Yes, some only cycle once a year but there are other things to consider than the fact that you and your friend "want puppies". that is entirely the wrong reason to breed. Have both these dogs been tested for any possible genetic faults that might be in their background? Do you know anything about parents, grandparents and etc. What will happen to these babies once you and your friend get yours? Are you prepared to mentor the person that might buy one for the rest of the dogs life? Are you prepared for the changes your male will have once bred? Is your friend prepared to possibly lose her female during the birthing process? |
