Actually it won't be "FIVE" but "THREE" breeds. And yes to me they will be much more different/desirable, special than any other cross even in the whole world as partially they will have my baby's blood. I'm not gonna breed for the money and the puppies will not end up in a rescue home.

Forgive me for asking but i have to just out of curiosity, why are you so much against cross breeds, Mr Pedigree? In so many of your messages yopu sound so much against them.

he aint against them...just sick of people breeding them.

hw much ya selling them for???

I'm getting a little bit confused here guys. Who's talking about practice or trying to mate them. I apreciate advice and help but really don't apreciate sarcasm. We're trying to get the dogs to get used to each other friendship wise and not the way you're talking bout it. I do have a clue bout mating as I've learned quite a bit within the last 48 hours and still got another month to learn even more before I make my final decision. And yes I had no clue about mating and that's why I joined this site, hoping that I'll get to know some friendly and helpfull people, who'll be willing to give me some friendly advice instead of making a joke out of all this. but unfortunately I was wrong as most of you that replied to my thread, was either sarcastic or thinking/believing you know it all. Some of you don't even seem to me to have a clue bout why a dog should or shouldn't be bred, yet again you're trying to make yourselfs look clever and important.rolleyes:rolleyes:

I'm not selling them, my friend would as I'm not in it for the money. I just want a puppy with my dog's blood in it. That's all. Is that so hard to understand, mainly for someone who supposed to be a dog lover...

I just want to ask all of you only one question.

"DID YOU JOIN THIS SITE TO JUDGE OTHER PEOPLE OR DID YOU JOIN TO GET TO KNOW OTHER PEOPLE, GIVE ADVICE AND HELP THEM IF YOU CAN??"confused:

Sorry, but that comment sounded very immature.

So your dog is the bestest in the whole wide world and that's why you have the right to breed. They will also be the bestest pups in the whole wide world because they will have your babies blood.

Ok.


Huh? What are we talking about trying to get them to mate. We made that bit up did we?
This was your first post...
I think you will find you said it yourself that you are trying to mate them, or practice mating. Not us. It doesn't sound as if you are just trying to "get the dogs used to each other friendship wise". To be a good liar you need a very good memory

I'm sorry but I know you may feel as though you are getting bullied here. But the people on this forum STRONGLY care about dogs and breeding. There are also quite a few well experienced breeders on this forum who have offered you advice, yet you are acting like they think they "know it all"... well maybe they do? because they have been there and have the experience.

I know we all have to start somewhere. But most people know the basics about mating dogs... and you clearly don't. Hopefully you will listen and RESEACH RESEARCH RESEARCH before breeding. I wouldn't say 1 month... that's nothing. Some breeders research and prepare themselves for upto 2 years before having their first litter.

It seems as though all you care about is getting your cute little puppy that has your dog as it's dad, and the other pups will get sold off because your friend is the owner of the bitch.

I think what people are trying to say slyneo is that:
= You need to get the dogs health tested - theses tests do not take a month. They need nearer 3 months for the results.
= The results will tell you if the pups are going to be ridden with potential illnesses, and tell you if the animals should infact be allowed to be mated
= By mating two dogs of different breeds with little knowledge/experience of the effect of that breeding your introducing a litter that will potentially be mated in the future

I think people are genuinely concerned that youll mate them to satisfy your needs despite pretty solid advice. And the new owners will be under the impression that the pups will be of sound health - when infact its just two dogs that have been thrown together to "produce"

A simple google search will give you ideas about the breed/tests - you said you lost a dog early.... At 5 yrs of age unless in a serious accident you shouldnt be loosing a dog?? If this was through health implications then you will be perpetuating the same cycle and pain - amongst up to 10 unknowing new owners (dep on litter size). It is this (amongst other things) that is concerning the members I think, not only the publics wellbeing but also the dogs life itself.

I hope this helps, it isnt meant as a poke at you though the expense of research and testing is what sets good breeders apart (and no I am not a breeder_)

I'm not trying to lie and calling someone a liar whom you don't even know is quite rude. My first language is not english so what I'm trying to say might sound different to you. And no I did not try to breed them and yes maybe I used the wrong word "mate". When to dogs play so many times they end up trying to hump each other because of dominance. But I'm sure you already know this. So I'll refrase myself: The dogs where playing and when my dog jumped on her she jumped and yelped. The reason I wanted to know if this was a normal reaction from the bitch so I know what to expect when she's in season.
And I never said that my dog is the cutest to other people. He's the cutest dog to me cause he's mine the same way as your dog is the cutest to you as it's your. My kids are the prittiest to me as they're mine and my hubby is the best because he's mine. I hope I don't need to go on with anymore examples and hopefuly you'll understand what I'm trying to say without you being sarcastic.

Thanks James.

You might be right about the other members being concerned but showing concern and giving advice can be done in a normal friendly matter without getting rude or sarcastic.
Atleast I could get some credit for seeking for advice and not throwing the dogs together just to produce. I was googling about info for breeding and that's how I came across this site too. I still didn't make a decision about the breeding even though I just would love to go ahead with it tomorrow, but I take things seriously where if I do it I don't want nothing to happen to the dogs or pups. And of course I'm thinking about the people as well who would be getting a pup from a littre. I'm a very responsible person and don't like messing things up, anyway my friends say that.
Thanks yet again for your advice. Oh and by the way my name's Sylvia

P.S Yes my previous dog Rony died after a simple operation and unfortunately they overdosed him on general anesthetic, so he's died as it weakened his whole body and heart. He couldn't digest any food or liquid that was given him. He was perfectly healthy before the op. they where only cleaning his anal part out from the glands. I hope you understand what I'm trying to tell you with my silly english

Sylvia, the number of 'newbies' that come onto the site with "Ive Got A Dog And I want To know When I can Breed Him" questions happens daily if not hourly. The advice you get at the start of the thread is usually the one that is offered most best and should be considered deeply. The problem comes when 'newbies' (im only a month or two old) insist that their dog is brill and shrug off repeated advice. There are some serious dog owners in here that have spent thousands in avoiding heath problems in order to combat breed fatigue. You cant blame them for having a bark at ya when they are trying to get to the bottom of things .
Like any forum your going to get personality, and in many respects they probably think your taking the p**s out of them too for "jumping in with two feet" - if you get my drift

Take it easy and have a chat and read over your original post it may read differently with a little experience??? - nice to meet you
James
