There is a difference between a dog that is of good health and a dog that is of good genetics, as you put it. Do either you or your sister now how to distinguish between the two? (Like, what breed-specific conditions have both dogs been tested for?, etc.) Likewise, there is a difference between a young male who is willing and physically able to breed and one who is of the age that he should be used as a stud.
No one is trying to talk you out of it necessarily, just trying to inform you of what an in depth process it is. There is alot more to it than, "well, I bet they would make some cute puppies."
