Breeding isn't as simple as it sounds, and because many purebred have been over bred for financial reasons, there are also many inherited health problems. You really have to invest a lot of money into a dog to make sure that they will produce healthy puppies that are within standard. Some people are getting into breeding Biewers just because they are really popular, but this is not a reason to breed a dog. Once you breed him, his personality will change, and he will be harder to care for. Remember, also that the number one cause of death for unneutered male dogs is injures due to car accidents. Unneutered dogs are much more likely to run away, and can smell a bitch in heat for over 10 miles. They get pretty anxious when they can smell a female, and will have many more behavioral problems. If you and your fiancé are interested in breeding, I suggest you find a mentor who can evaluate your dog, and decide if he's really right for breeding. There really is an overabundance of dogs, and only those dogs who truly are the best examples of the breed should be bred. |
