If you love her that much don't risk her life because you could end up with no puppies and no mother dog. Just get her spayed and buy another puppy it will end up cheaper anyway. When breeding you need to make sure you are breeding good bred dogs, you need to know there lines for many generations back for many reasons one to know if there are any health issues and also to know how big the dogs and how big and puppies where, genetic and health testing is very important, its also important both dogs are AKC registered, that the female is over 5 pounds and that the male is less then the female, that you have a mentor to be there with you when the mother is going into labor to make sure every angle is covered and that the mentor knows what to do if a baby gets stuck or something else happens. Are you prepared to not get any sleep for having to bottle feed these babies if there mom dies or rejects the puppies? Do you have several couple thousands of dollars for emergency care, regular care, tail docking, dew claw removal and so on?
