Hehehehe but either way you will find oponents/proponents to everything. It just depends on what you prefer since you'll be taking care of the pup for 15 + years, but I think you covered everything with the genetic testing I would just ask to speak with the vet about the breeding pair or ask to see the records where the testing was done |
Not breeding every heat though can be harder on there bodies and leave room for a pretty serious infection. As long as you are keeping your breeders in tip top health shape they are ok breeding every heat. Now breeders who do not keep there females in good health and do not take good care of them well they are doing it wrong and it will be harder on there females.
