Re: Breeding Before 2 yrs of age

What is your hurry? In the USA (the country, not the GSD club) the standard is OFA. I know of no rottweiler COE club that allows breeding before 24 months of age. I would be very suspicious of a person who wants to breed so young. I want to know what their motives are and before even knowing what they are, I would suspect that they are not in the best interest of the bitch or the breed.
Rottweilers are prone to a type of cataract that does not typically show up until between 18-36 months of age. Personally I don't believe or trust any clear CERF that was done before 18 months of age because of that and perfer to see CERF for after 36 months.
Again, what is your hurry?
