Also, vets need to evaluate patellas, hearts, tracheas, etc. to determine a dog is healthy for breeding. Do not breed dogs with greater than grade 1 luxated patellas, and preferably NO luxations. Just some food for thought for both sire and dam owner before deciding to breed...once it's done, there's no going back.
Thanks for the info i need all i can get and yeah i have had luna to the vet to have all her check ups to make sure its safe for breeding wouldnt want the puppies to be unhealthy or to add any trauma to luna that would make her ill.
