But can you please tell me what people are looking for when they look for a stud?
Also are they supposed to be checked for STD's Everytime they mate?
What makes them spray all the time?
Why are they not good companion dogs?
Thank you all for all the great advice... |
Then your Toby is not champion sired he has champions in his lines.
Champion and or show dog would have the same meaning unless the dog was shown and not finished.
Most responsible breeders will required an STD before breeding to an unknown female. The test cost about $90.00 here in the northwest.
Spraying happens because your little guy is not neutered and he is now "man of the house" and wants everyone to know what is his territory...That means what was once yours is now his and fair game to spray his little smell anywhere his heart desires and for that reason they are stud dogs and no longer considered trained companions. If your going to stud him buy belly bands and band him while he is in your house...it saves a lot of furniture, rug and fabric spray stains and smells from happening.
hope this helps
