Thanks!!!! You were alot of help. He's definately tested fine for everything, but most vets would rather not have breeders, because of the pet population being so out of control. We have a very healthy male, and he's already been trying to get on our 2 females that are only 5 months old. I definately have watched them closely. I'm not going to be one of those breeders that do it for the money. Our dogs are very very loved. We have 4 females and the one male. We have already bred our older female (she's 3 years old). She has produced 2 beautiful litters of 6 pups in each litter. But we were using a friend's male. They were great together, but we got ourself a male so we won't have to keep paying stud service. Our male is such a doll!!! Our females aren't tiny either, so I know they will do great to be pups. We kept 2 females outta the last litter we had back in January. So, they will hit around 8 lbs also, if not close to 10 lbs.
Anyways, thanks a bunches for the advice. God bless, Heather |
