sounds like you are doing some research!! Please make sure your girl is a good representative of the breed. Go to some shows and look around. Talk to breeders or judges and have them look at her. Check her for health problems like liver shunts, collapsing trachea and slipping pattellas. How is her bite and conformation? You will also eed to do this with the stud you choose.
The "ups" of breeding are having a healthy beautiful litter with hopes of showing at least one. I love to see their personalities develope. They are just so darned cute!!!! Having the mom come through whelping with flying colors and she is a great mom. Thats a big plus!!!
The "downs" of breeding are: Needing a c-section. Having your female die while having a c-section. Loosing a litter. Having a mom with no milk or one that refuses to take care of the puppies. Having a mom that gets eclampsia.
Thats just to name a few!!
Hope that helps!!! Just a few things to think about. |
