PAX Posted October 8, 2010 Share Posted October 8, 2010 Go to some dog shows and research your breed, then you can make an informed decision whether breeding is right for your dog and you. Good on you for asking advice. Lots of cute puppies out there, you need need to make sure you're helping the breeding cause and not breeding more puppies that will end up as BYB breeders.

Sandra777 Posted October 8, 2010 Share Posted October 8, 2010 :D Poor girl is probably too busy trying to avoid those of us she has been warned about! lucky for me, i havent came across any of those people yet! I'm here now ;) If you want to breed your bitch, you want to be VERY careful of ''breeders'' who approach/contact you offering a stud dog for an immature bitch owned by an unregistered owner (that would be you ;) ) I don't know of any ethical breeder who would do this EXCEPT in the case of the breeder of the bitch or perhaps the breeder/s of the bitch's parents who might suggest xxx dog would one to consider in the future. For me, if your friends all want a puppy just like your bitch you could be well served by asking each one to stump up with $100-$150 deposit and see how many are left at the end of this conversation. I agree with the person who said they would never risk the life of their bitch just so their friends could have a puppy. Hang around here, learn from others with toy breeds and Poms in particular, and make your decision slowly and rationally. Having puppies isn't actually all that cute when the bitch needs a caesar then the pups develop fading puppy syndrome and then the bitch gets black mastitis and the skin on two of her boobs sloughs off in a great pussy lump.

tdierikx Posted October 8, 2010 Share Posted October 8, 2010 OK - is your girl registered on the MAIN register in your state or whatever state she was bred in? Have you applied for a breeder's prefix from the Canine body in your state? If the answer is "no" to either or both of these questions, then I'd suggest that you desex your girl and enjoy her for who she is, rather than what she can whelp for you... Oh - and people who are "interested" in having one of your pups usually disappear or have some excuse when the subject of paying for said pup comes up... so best to advise of what price you'd be asking for one of these "possible" pups before believing anything from the "interested" parties.

Oliversmum Posted October 8, 2010 Share Posted October 8, 2010 Welcome Samantha and well done for seeking advice from experienced people :D . You have come to the right place for knowledge and you will get honest advice from lots of people. As long as you take it all in the spirit that it is given, you will do just fine (it seems that you are taking it on board and have a sensible attitude toward the advice given) The more time you spend on here reading and learning I think you will see why so many are giving you the advice to desex. I'm a vet nurse and I have seen some very sad things happen to tiny bitches and their babies having a 'just one litter'. And as far as undesexed bitches, you don't want a midnight pyometra surgery...trust me, very sick dog and big $$$$, and that is just one example of what can go wrong with keeping your bitch entire. Enjoy your little girl, can't wait for some piccies....they are mandatory you know ;) take care and have fun Shells Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
