I know you might not understand now because you are new to breeding. But I breed my pair and had a first litter. Is not as easy as it sounds aside from the genetic testing, I would recommend it because you don't want any puppy's being born sick and dyeing shortly after birth and the dams mother coming after you. As to him being one he is too young my two year old stud had trouble mating as to he dirint know what he was doing. It took my expirienced mentor to come over and help me get them to tie. Also your friends must know there's not much money to be made they will be lucky if they come out even. Example- my female had one pup - cost- csections, X-rays, whelping supply cost, vet during pregnancy. After birth female dirint care for puppy's because of c section. I dirint sleep for days supplementing the puppy. It hasn't cost me hundreds I'm well in the thousands lucky I have my daughter who is keeping her if I was selling I would be probably -negative thousands yes im not lyeing. Open your eyes it's not that easy besides I've seen studs online akc registered being studed for as low as 300-500 I saw you live in Florida look online. Or pick of the litter what if the dam has one that will be a battle between you and the other folks some people even make contracts to be sure they go thru. It's vary complicated. If akc are being studed for 300-500 how much would no registrations be studed for? No testing? Not much get him neutered the marking gets terrible believe me.
