No one is being sarcastic.

By your own admission, you're a novice. (And your posting clearly confirms this as you are so ill-informed you think the clearances Terri Lambert referenced are gotten from your vet, you think your vet is an authority on breeding, and you think the puppies produced by your bitch and dog would have even better pups. And that's only for starters.)

Someone with your lack of knowledge has no business breeding. I'm not being sarcastic or unkind or elitist.

I repeat my suggestion

Read thru the postings in Breeding. Then read thru the postings in Rescue.

Also I wanted to add are you willing to take back one of your puppies, due to aggression, allergies or other reasons owner is unable to keep throughout the dogs whole life. This means even if the dog becomes ill and the owner can't afford medical care for such animal. Because as a breeder you should also be able to home any of your puppies or rehome them throughout their entire life.

Also bitches that are breed can also have complications during pregnancy and giving birth (even potentially losing your bitch).

Read the stickies in breeding, then go to the rescue part of the forum and maybe you will begin to understand where people on this site are coming from.

You come here after the fact and ask questions. Research into breeding your dogs should have come FIRST.

Yes, we all know how wonderful rotties are or we wouldn't be on this site.

Go to petfinder or do a search for rottie rescues and you will see how many wonderful and desirable dogs are up for adoption. This is because people like you want to breed their "nice" dogs.

I have two nice dogs. Well one nice dog (a GSDx) and the best dog in the world (rottiex). At least he is in my opinion. Yet both my dogs are spayed/neutered. Why? Because I will reiterate again that the world is full of wonderful, nice, great dogs.

As far as registered, it is a piece of paper, nothing more. The only thing is proves is your dogs lineage.

Your dogs have no health clearances, no titles from showing, no nothing. Even then there are many COE breeders who have put all this time and effort into their dogs and still will not breed a dog because they feel it will not help to better the breed.

Spay and neuter you dogs, and enjoy them for the wonderful pets that they are.

You did receive answers. A number of them and they gave you straight facts. You just didn't like the replies because they didn't tell you what you wanted to hear.

Simply put, you are not educated enough to even think about breeding your two nice dogs. Leave the breeding to the experts who know what they're doing and desex your pet dogs.

Please do as people have suggested and read the sticky's in the breeding forum...then the rescue section.
