I guess the best thing to do is ask a vet. Any comments? | I have heard that having a first time litter after 3 can result in complications. Breeding a 4 year old would not necessarily be an issue so long as it was not the first litter. I don't recall exactly why, something to do with less flexibility in the pelvic bones I believe. |
