Before you even consider becoming a breeder please study the breed standard thoroughly, have your male evaluated for confirmation, genetic genotype, hereditary faults, study his pedigree, and have him tested for health issues common to our breed. The male should than only be mated to selected bitches of good quallity owned by reputable breeders. Far too many dogs are being bred and simply wanting an othe pet is not a good enough reason to breed in my opinion. If your boy can be used to improve the breed than by all means prove him in the show ring and breed him. If not than provide a wonderful home to the numerous homeless babies already out there.
