Re: Starting to breed... I WANT to breed my dogs! You people are talking to me like I've bred my dog for the third time and like I don't care about animals. I have a year and a half PLUS to gather the needed information before I do decide. A lot of your opinions are based on information that you don't know... My male's sire and dam have been cleared, for heart, elbows, and hips they said nothing on the eyes. They did not show their dog. I contacted my female's breeders and they "said" they are going to do this. They also contacted their breeders to find out some information for me as well. Who said that my dogs are not registered? They are both registered! I have come to this forum to gain information not to hear slating! I understand that breeding is a touchy topic, but if you want people to listen to you, you should work on your deliveries! Now you have to be an expert to want to better the breed? Just because one person has owned dogs their whole lives and never once wanted to breed their animals, doesn't mean myself or anyone else SHOULD feel the same way. I got a list of things I need for CGC test requirements, and I will be doing this shortly! Noww that I know about the risks, my next pups will be selected more carefully. Not just on the apperance of the parents and grandparents! We all learn, and we all start somewhere. Like I said I have a good while before a final decision is made. |
