I know there's a lot of cost, especially if the female has to have a c-section but what are some of the other cost?
It would be awhile before I even could actually consider starting the proccess but I'd like to be informed before I decide to either nueter my boy or not or if I should start thinking about purchasing a female for the future. Any information would be so helpful. Thank you! |

I am a show breeder. Therefor I will tell you that you need to Champion your boy in the AKC, if indeed you are in the US. In Canada it is the CKC.
In Europe any dog club under FCI. The cost to champion your dog may be upwards of $2000.
Irrespective of the above, you really need to health test your dog. Do all the breed specific tests, to help insure you do NOT pass on genetic defects. Those costs are upwards of $500.
