Ok guys.. quick update.. I've decided to keep Kupo as full AKC and went ahead and got him registered. I'm also going to the kennel club event hosting next month in my area. I've contacted the president of the club and he said he'll help me with the process and get me introduced to yorkie people in the club.
But now here is my other dilemma. I really want to get Kupo a girlfriend, but after reading everything about all the complications of breeding, and how I'd have to keep Kupo away during her heat, I'm not sure if I can really do it anymore. I live in apartment and I'm pretty sure Kupo would bark like any other dogs would do to get to the female... and I'm honestly getting discouraged after reading downsides of breeding...
So here is the other question... should I get another boy dog instead? I probably will get him full AKC too. This time I'll make sure to ask the breeder all the necessary questions when getting the next pup.. Their bite, topline, gait and all.. I think last time I was only concerned with his bite.. and if he was healthy and nothing else. I read that the puppy's personality and temperament determines if same sex dogs can be housed together. Kupo is really great. He's super friendly and he loves all animals and human. Kupo's trainer even uses Kupo sometimes for those shy dogs to overcome their problems. So I'm thinking he might do well with another boy dog, but I'm not completely sure since I wouldn't know other dog's personality right now.. since he's not even born yet. lol
Do you think intact male dogs will do well together? |
