Breeding is definately something that you should really think about. Doing it just for their offspring may not be the best option, however maybe it is depending on the situation. It is definately good that you are putting some real thought into it. I never thought when I started breeding my male that I would really have anything to give up...BOY was I WRONG!
My carpet
vacations
various things destroyed
going to the dog park
etc
However the benefits for me are looking at those little faces after a successful breed and thinking that "I did that". It is amazing, tis why I continue to sacrafice the other stuff. So once you look at both sides you'll know what to do. Happy choosing, keep us posted.
Cheers,
