you got that right.

mo

she also mentions a stud chi and a stud pug
in her posts

The pug puppies in August all died from what you said on your previous post Litter of pug puppies all dies within 3 days of birth
so perhaps unless you have a proven reason why the pups died then allowing others to use you "stud" dog may not be the best idea.

hmmm just a thought if you have got nothing possitive to write then don;t bother, i was just wanting some advise, every body has to start somewhere & i was told that i wouod meet some nice people on here that are will to help, obviously i was told wrong

[QUOTE=moboyd;1049553]Go through the posts, the o/p is wanting to make breeding her full time occupation, she dosnt know the first thing about the simpliest of things regarding her breed, she even asks on one thread has any one got an information booklet or something on her breed,in fact her qustion was and I quote," hi does any body have a care sheet with info on pugs" she has already bred her bitch who is only young and is now using the male, and the dogs were "vet checked" she even asked was father to daughter matings ok because her friend wants one of the girl pups she bred, and is probably going to use this young male on her?you tell me is its a BYB or not? it has all the signs IMO so I wont be doing any advising, if she wanted to be a professional breeder, she should have done her research, about different lines, gone to reputable breeders who would mentor her, should have had all the relevant health tests required for her breed, campaigned her dogs at shows to get confirmation that the dogs are of the standard to breed from all of these things and gone about it professionally not just buy a male and female and bang out litter

Yes i do want to go into breeding full time that is why i am asking so many questions to make sure i have the correct advise, i am also doing some educational courses to gain qualifications, i would never use a father to daughter, i was told at manchester show that he was a good standard of the breed, my bitch isn't young either she was 3 at the time, i am doing lots of research that is why i keep askig so many question, but i don't seem to be getting any helpfull advice

[QUOTE=emmas20040_1;1050754]to make a living off breeding dogs is to be a puppy farmer, you are going to have to breed may many litters to live off this "occupation" when there are already thousands of dogs in rescues over the country, just because someone at a show says your dog is to standard is a load of crap, you need to go under many judges consistantly getting placed highly, you dont know enough about your own breed to make that decision you dont even have the basic knowledge, and coming onto forums to gain this is pathetic, yes forums are a great place to chat about little problems you may have in training a pup, etc, but its certainly not a place that is here to assist people on the road to being puppy farm. to be honest I am disgusted and appalled that you think the good people on this forum are going to back you on this. you read my previous post, contact someone reputatable in your breed ask them for advice and see what their response is, I am sure if anyone had my breed that had the same intentions you have, would be sent up the road, because I dont want someone with your lack of knowledge ruining my breed, by flooding the market with possibly sub standard pups.

Mo

There is more to breeding then sticking to dogs together and letting them get on with it, There could be a number of reasons contributing to the problem you ask about.

My opinion is that is you have to ask the reasons you are not experienced enough to be attempting it in the first place.

DT

If you were serious about breeding ethically then you go to your dogs breeders and ask them to mentor you.......or do they not know your breeding the dogs?

All good breeders started out with a very experienced ethical and responsible mentor.

You will NOT make a profit to live on by breeding dogs........unless you throw out litter after litter and stud you dog to anyone and everyone.


What tests have your dogs had done and passed? Because to be a good breeder your dogs will need to have passed health tests. And not just a vet check up.

Speak to the breeder of your dogs, get some serious info about the pedigrees of your dogs and if there is any known genetic problems in those lines. The death of a whole litter may be due to your lack of experience or to some infective problem or something non-genetic, but as a breeder you have to assume it is genetic until proven otherwise. To then stud out a dog whose first litter has all died is not good. You may be transferring your problems on to another breeder, which is hardly fair. I would get quite a few litters under your belt of healthy pups before even considering studding him out, if indeed he is of that quality.

There may be many reasons why your dog isn't interested in other females, some physical some psychological, but that is not your only problem here.

Breeding well is about studying and testing lines and culling problem animals from programs, it is not just about having a male and female and breeding them, just because you can.

I don't believe you can make a living from breeding unless you do enter the puppy farmer route and cut costs to the bone and breed your dogs to the max.

My dogs have all been mongrels and all my cats moggies, so I know f all about safe pedigree breeding practices. But having read through your previous posts I feel like crying. Why are you trying so hard to breed your dogs? If it's money, or the satisfaction of helping people... why not become a surrogate yourself? What a truly selfless act. You could spit out a baby once a year, sell it to a rich childless couple (who haven't considered adopting any of the untold unwanted children in orphanages) for tens of thousands; it'd be possible to earn a great living out of it. If you had twins it's be like a boom year! Double wages! And then perhaps the new career would show you just what the body goes through when it gives birth, what a massive thing it is. Hormone levels going crazy, nausea, anxiety, depression, your body growing and skin stretching, water retention, carrying round the extra weight to term... and then delivery itself... crikey...
After around 18 years of that you might be qualified to put your pets through the same thing. Perhaps even your daughters.
