Joined 14 March Messages Joined 12 June Messages 1, Location Chesterfield. My neice bred off her Dalmation without papers. Sold pups for considerably less than KC reg ones though. Not sure why your dogs mum needed to have a litter before spaying - thats an old wives tale!! There are plenty of professional breeders out there with dogs with papers, IMO leave the breeding to them as there are enough unwanted pups around.

Do u have homes lined up for these puppies Look at the Stud's Pedigree Looking at the stud's pedigree will also show you how many champions are in his family tree. Finding a Dam for a Stud Dog Just as the owner of the dam wants to find the best male to complement their dog, likewise a stud dog owner should seek to find a dam that will further the breed's development.

Considerations The same considerations apply when looking for a stud. Check with National Breed Clubs You can find suitable mates for your stud through similar steps a potential dam's owner would use to find a stud. Attend Dog Shows Attend local dog shows, both as a competitor and a spectator.

Studs Can Mate Any Time Since male dogs can mate at any time, you do not have the same time restrictions as the owner of a dam, who is dependent on their dog's heat cycle. Discuss the Pedigree You'll want to discuss the dog's pedigree and their goals for breeding with the owner of the dam to make sure they are in line with yours. Advertising There are many websites where you can advertise your dog for matings, whether your dog is a dam or a stud.

Breeders are eligible to become a part of this program if they: Have participated in AKC events for at least five years. Have earned titles on at least four dogs from litters of AKC-registered dogs that they either bred or co-bred with another breeder.

The titles must be from conformation, performance, or companion events. Are an active member of an AKC club. Provide proof that all breeding dogs had recommended health tests done prior to breeding. The types of tests will vary based on what is recommended by the parent club of the breed. Provide proof that all the puppies from litters they have bred were registered individually with the AKC.

The Stud Contract Some stud dog owners use a written contract that lays out the terms under which the breeding will be conducted. Standard Terms and Fees Items that are standard in stud contracts include: The contract specifies the exact stud to be used as well as his registration number, and the dam's name and registration number are added to the document, as well.

A set fee is paid to the stud owner by the dam's owner. The fee is paid in consideration of the stud dog's work and does not in itself guarantee that the dam will conceive. The amount of the fee is determined by the stud dog owner and listed in the contract.

Some breeders charge a stud fee that is equal to the asking price for one puppy. In return for the fee, the stud will be used on the dam for one, two or possibly three breedings during the current heat cycle.

The contract may even specify whether the breedings are to be conducted naturally or by artificial insemination. Some contracts also have space to record the actual breeding date s so the female's owner can calculate the possible due date s. Optional Terms Additional terms that may apply include: Some stud owners are willing to guarantee one or two live puppies at the time of birth.

If so, they offer one repeat service at no extra charge if the original breeding doesn't take. If the prospective stud has never been used before, some breeders will agree to waive the fee in order to get the stud "proven. Another variation is that the stud fee is paid after it has been determined that the dam is indeed pregnant. In some cases, the stud owner may agree to take the pick puppy of the litter in lieu of a cash payment. Veterinary Considerations If the dogs are to be bred naturally, both dogs should be examined by a vet and certified free of canine brucellosis.

What Else to Expect In most cases, the dam is brought to the stud dog's location, and she may actually remain at the stud dog owner's house during the breeding period in some cases. Witnessing the Breeding Some breeders will encourage you to stay and witness the breeding, especially if your dam has never been bred before.

Tips for the First-Time Stud While some dogs will take naturally to the process, you may need to assist the dog physically to get into place if this is his first breeding.

The AKC registered those parents because their parents were registered. And so on. AKC registration is a mechanical process, a chain of numbers. Doesn't a pedigree mean good quality? A pedigree is a bunch of names. I thought AKC registered meant good quality! The AKC registers dogs with no health or safety checks at all. But scams happen. Let's say Dishonest Dave has two purebred Boxers with registration papers. The female is accidentally bred by a stray dog of unknown ancestry.

The AKC will dutifully mail him Boxer registration papers for each puppy, which he will happily pass along to the buyer of each puppy And no one will be the wiser until the puppies grow up and start to look suspiciously non-Boxerish.

You can do this right from your own home. No vet visit. No blood tests. This is false. So now you know a little about registration papers and pedigrees and how they can be so helpful. But you still need answers to these questions: When you look at a pedigree, how can you tell if there's too much inbreeding?

How much is too much? What does a "good" pedigree look like, anyway? What about a "bad" pedigree?
