An intact dog will "mark" his territory well! This means lifting his leg EVERYWHERE, even on your furniture. This is not 100%, but still a LOT more than a neutered dog.

An intact dog will "roam" to find a female in heat if he gets outside.

And unspayed female is more likely to get cancer. Not sure if this applies to males.

Unless you are going to show your male dog to championship status in the AKC, and desire to "improve the breed" by breeding his particular strengths, I wouldn't get into breeding him. Just my 2 cents.
