    • Dogs do not have intercourse for social reasons, unlike humans. Just because a dog can breed, doesn't mean it should. NO dog, male or female should be bred until proper genetic testing can be done, which is at least 2 years old. Why are you wanting to breed your dog? Is she an exceptional specimenof her breed, conforming closely to the breed standard? Has she any hard tofind virtues that would be a critical addition to the breed? Has she beentested for genetic problems that can be passed on from the parents and doesshe have an exceptional temperament? Has she been shown, and at least is onher way to being a champion, if not already one? If you want to breed and do it ethically, you must be committed tolearning all about your breed..its standard, its genetic diseases, the good,the bad and the ugly. You must understand that your female could die. Youmight have nothing but dead puppy bodies whether she lives or not. You mighthave to pay for an emergency c-section to save her and/or the pups. If youlose her, you are responsible for all the feeding of the pups, which willrequire you to feed them every 1.5 to 2 hours. ALL hours, not just thedaylight ones. The puppies will poop 24/7, and this becomes yourresponsibility to clean whether the mother survives to raise them or not.The pups still need to be vet checked, vaccinated and dewormed no matterwhat. When they reach certain stages of their lives, they need propersocialization and guidance. They will be your responsibility at least for 8weeks. After that 8 weeks, you are responsible to make sure they never windup homeless in a shelter or rescue. To ensure that, you will have to dohomechecks and make up contracts to be certain the new owners are going totake care of them for life. You have to agree to always be available to takeback your puppies no matter what. If you want to be a responsible breeder, look up your local breedclub, jump in and educate yourself. Listen to the advice of REPUTABLEbreeders and learn all you can about your dog. If you just wanna makepuppies to sell for lotsa money, don't bother. We have too many of thosealready.
