How do we find someone in our area that might use him as a stud? We live in the east valley of Phoenix. |
He is a bit too old to start for a first stud.
Most breeders have their own studs, so finding a female for your boy may a bit difficult.
Other things to consider if you do. Is he a good speciman of the breed, have you had all the necessary tests performed....eyes, ears checked, heart, hips, knees x-rayed, bile acid tests, STD tests and temperament tests? Is he AKC registered. Are you prepared to assist the owner of the female with the whelping process? Are you prepared to take any puppies the owner of the female can't place. Are you prepared to take puppies back if the owners of the puppies require the pups be rehomed. Have you been researching contracts.....Just a few things to look into.
