Dumb question here, but doesn't a dog have to be registered with the AKC by 12 months of age? |

Thanks, Tammy. |
Why do you want to breed him? Come on, we all know why. :rolleyes: And none of those reasons that you are thinking of are good reasons. |
You still haven't answered any of our questions about why you want to breed the dog. What color is the registration certificate you got with the dog? That will tell if the dog has a limited registration or not. |
if he's not registered then i don't see a problem some breeders don't want you breeding cause they want to keep the same line or something but check out to see if there's any health problems in the background and if not i would say she should of made a contract up saying that and if there wasn't one made up then gl go for it |

You should honor the breeders wishes and not breed the dog. Also he is pet quality and shoould not be bred. Just enjoy him as a pet |

Many breeders make the decision because they are concerned about the overall well being of the dog, even down the road as an adult. They don't want to see the health of their dogs put at risk by someone with no breeding knowledge deciding they will give it a go. |
A troll indeed! |

often there is a very good reason for a breeder not wanting a dog or puppy they sold to be used for breeding. The fact that the particular dog or puppy is just not quality that it should be used for breeding and passing on its genes is a very valid reason. You would have to be active in the show rings to learn what is and what isn't a show quality and what should or shouldn't be used for breeding. And then of coure, there is the possibility of health issues that are not expressed in this dog but can potentially turn up in its offspring. Breeding pet quality only moves the generations further and further away from looking like nice quality yorkies. |

Okay I need to say this, If the dog is not registered then there is a reason for it. The breeder when asked stated the dog was not to be bred. The reason some breeders don't want a dog being bred is not because" they want to keep the same lines or something" It's because the dog does not fit the standard for the breed. The only way the OP is going to find out if there are any genetic health problems with this dog is by asking the breeder which she probably won't do anyway because the breeder already stated the dog was not to be bred. Regardless if the contract was written or verbal the breeders wishes should still be abided by. I am going to leave this thread now before I say things that could possible get me banned.:mad::thumbdown |
If the dog was sold for pet purposes only, then in my own opinion that's what he should stay..a pet. That was the breeders wishes apparently, and just because he still has his testicles doesn't mean he should be bred. |
