Yorkiedaze's post was VERY informative and you didn't even comment on it. Anyhow, I'm hoping you'll reconsider and take time to re evaluate breeding until you know more about it. |
i totally agree. i have studied breeding for two years before attempting it. and believe me, i felt i still did not know enough. do you know what to do when they tie? if the bitch is upset and crying, what to do during the tie? signs of problems in labor? these are just a tiny bit of the numerous amount of information you will need to know. we have seen too many people here on yt loose the mother or the babies b/c they didn't know the signs.
please learn all you can. best thing thing to do is get a mentor. all the reading in the world cannot prepare you for the whelping.
