What about you then Janet-what have you in mind-Hmmm?Do you breed already and if so forgive me-i've been popping in and out of here unregularly so maybe i'm behindSorry of course-just noticed your banner-so is it your first attempt at using a stud? Great advice SKAlso in reguards to the latter post about stud fees-Any reputable and respected breeder would have this in a written or spoken agreement and would normally assure you of a repeat mating should your girl not take on her 1st visit-they understand that especially with a maiden she doesn't always take on a 1st visit-no matter how active her and chosen lad have been
