 Too Old--- Immoral?????
I understand that everyone has their opinions as far as breeding ages for female dogs. However, the AKC states its standards as follows:
Chapter 3, Section 5 of the Rules Applying to Registration and Discipline reads as follows:
"No dog or litter out of a dam under eight (8) months or over twelve (12) years of age at the time of mating, or by a sire under seven (7) months or over twelve (12) years of age at the time of mating, will be registered unless the application for registration shall be accompanied by an affidavit or evidence which shall prove the fact to the satisfaction of The American Kennel Club."
Personally, I would not breed a female at the age of 12 but, it is still ethical and morally correct according to the AKC standards.......... At least she is telling the truth and not trying to hide anything. Good Luck on finding her a new home. |
