send your girl's pedigree to stud owners. make sure the pedigrees compliment each other. go and view the stud, the owner and their set up before you take your girl. ensure your girl is going somewhere where she will be looked after. ask lots of questions and inspect the stud house and make sure it's clean and you will just be able to tell if things don't look "right" go with you instincts. start looking now, call people, visit people. your girl must be very precious and you won't want to leave her with just "anybody" even if the stud looks good. BE CAREFUL make sure you see his registration documents too.
