Breeding my Patt

[Brian-911 210]

My bitch has come into season she's 3 and half now and always said I'll have pup out of her she does the job perfect for me, a friend of mine wants one too so I thought I'll breed her now before I have her spayed. Now I've never bred a dog before I've been looking up on it but I think some of the stuff I've read up on it, but would like some info off you guys about it all whelping what to feed mother and pups ect.. Also how many pups have you had before for first litter I'm hoping for just two healthy pups ideally.. Cheers

mate would you not wait for her summer heath and then breed her ,you will miss out on the end of the season if you breed her now and if she has a summer litter the pups will be near enough the right age to start the following season,it's up to yourself but that's what i would do

if ya can work without her back end of season now is the time to breed her pups will be around 10 months next season and will be ready to watch older dogs work and get a feel for the action

a pup needs a to be kept at it for a while so a 12/13 mths old starting out looking about and watching other dogs will be a nice age to start them selves just before or after Christmas and get a few digs under it's belt before it's summer break and if the bitch has had a good season so far keep her at it ,if she is only 3 1/2 she can only be at most in her 2nd working season so she only has 1 full season of work so far and if ye give her a summer litter you can give her a couple of mths break before pupping her and a lot easier on the young pups to be getting their feet in the summer months ,and the pups should be weened nd the bitch more or less ready for work at the start of the season,JMHO
