I have at least a year before I need to choose a mate for her so I will take my time and get to know the breed standards better, and get to know my little girl better so I can choose a good mate.
I understand that it is risky and challenging, but I believe that I can meet the challenge. Thank to all of you, I am not going into this blind.

Sorry about your loss , I know how hard it is believe me- Been there done that.and it still hurts. But get up dust our selves off and go again.
My best to you in starting your new venture, sounds like you are at least thinking and if you study hard and hopefully find a local mentor/ breeder to guide you through it can be a very rewarding vocation even for us old retired people
You will find lots of great advice on here and sort thru it and use all that you can as well as check this breeders thread on a regular schedule. I know there are many very educated breeders here that will help all they can. I find tips from them often too and I have been at this longer than some of them are old which proves you are never too old to learn if you keep your ears open and mouth shut
Again-Glad to have you here..
