Because you don't breed just to have puppies...there are tons of unwanted puppies that you could go and adopt or choose a free one. What if she has 7-8 puppies...are you going to keep them all? There are too many mutts out there that are being abandoned everyday. You both have two great breeds. Why mess with the breed and mix them? If you two are wanting to breed, why not study your breeds and then decide if its something you want to do...but only if you are doing it to better the breed...IMO creating mutts is not beneficial to the breed.

What if something happens to you medically that you wouldn't be able to take care of all of them? If you are an animal lover then why not consider taking a deserving puppy from the pound or rescue shelter?

If you do decide to go ahead and do it, which I'm sure you will. I hope the both of you do some research into the breeds and whelping. I personally studied and thought I would be totally prepared but with my first litter I was a mess...too excited to think.
