You're right. You can't get thorough stud answers on an online forum. There are tons of follow up that need to be done by a real live person. Best person to answer these questions is a reputable breeder. OP check the mother club breeder referral page.

However, as Ann already stated, breeding is a topic we take very seriously. I can guarantee that a lot of the people who posted have at one point or another considered breeding. I know I have. Knowing the full background tests needed for both bitch and stud, which I believe have been mentioned in this thread, is a great way to start your research. BUT, reading about the heart brake, and living through the issues I've had with a dog that has a bad temperament, I changed my mind. (Extreme shyness is inheritable, I didn't know that prior to having my pup) It was the stories, the personal testimonials, that helped me decide. If we coldly answer the questions, then we aren't being good friends and are not providing the OP with the whole picture. And yes, I consider most people here to be friends because they're all very supporting and share so much of their life with us day in and day out.
