First,

thank you for your service
I haven't seen any disrespect here just our opinions on the number of dogs being bred & shelters. You can't just delete a thread that you started the forum doesn't work that way. You can ask that it be locked pm PM a moderator but that's about it.
Some of us have been around this forum for a very long time-years- and have seen breeding go very badly and momma die, puppies die and whelping turn into emergency situation very quickly. Then add to that the work involved in a litter after and the additional expenses of vetting puppies, selling puppies to the right people and etc. When you look at all of those things in the larger picture it starts to look less and less appealing.
What is your reason for wanting to breed your dog? <---- this is the ultimate question you should ask yourself. If it's because you think she's got a great personality and temperament is that truly enough of a justification? The benefit to you should outweighs the negative in the end. After the puppies are gone what exactly have you gained from having a litter of puppies?
