Breeding

We get questions from time to time from people thinking of breeding their pups. It is a very big and important decision one must make before they go through with it, once which effects the owner as much as it does the dog in labor.

We ask, and Hope, everyone wishing to get into breeding takes the time to REALLY and TRULY consider this decision to it's full extend, and do as much research as possible before they dive in.

To that end, here are some threads that may help shed some light on breeding.
