Research doesn't mean talking to a few people and reading a few books. Research is learning the standard inside and out. Attending seminars/classes on canine genetics, pedigrees, lines, canine reproduction and whelping. Breeding the best of the best, not just putting two dogs together. It takes years of studying to do it correctly. |
thanks, i'm not trying to bash, i'm being harsh to prove a point. she could seriously loose her dog doing this. is that a risk worth taking to have a puppy from her bitch? what if she looses both of them? i'm not being mean i'm being realistic. i love my dog far too much to put that risk on her life. i know RVT's and DVM's that with all the knowledge that they have still do not breed because it's such a huge, huge responsibility.
thanks,
