Hello, We are working on an informatative site called The American Bulldog Super Information Highway at: http://www.geocities.com/americanbulldoginfohighway It will include a 'Breeders' corner, loaded with all kinds of Breeding, Whelping, And Care tips for mother and pups. Please be patient, I will have the site up and going in a few more days. I just finished up the health section.. First things first, is picking the right Stud dog. Just because you have male in the yard dont mean he will compliment your female. Read your pedigree's and make sure your not line breeding your dogs. IP: Logged |

Hello #1SBT! Welcome to the boards! Here you will find some excellent info, get good advice from the many helpful and cherished members we have! I must say, it is refreshing to see someone taking the time to learn and research in advance! Doing your homework will get you well on your way! I've copied, pasted & edited some of what I've posted before about Responsible Breeding. Its late, I'm tired so may have forgotten some things but hope that some of this assists you. One sentence I've always known to be true - "A Responsible Breeder lives for his dogs not off his dogs" -------------------------------------------- Breeding is so much more than mating two dogs. [It includes knowing] the [pedigree] background and history of the sire and dam and whether the match of the two dogs is desirable. I would be extremely concerned about health [problems in the breed, learn about the health certifications most breeder in your breed test for]. Many of which are not apparent until the parents have well matured. Plus a wait list of homes should be in order before hand (not including selling to friends and family - something to be cautious about). There is also a link to a thread in Auspet's PB forum called "Future Breeder" http://www.auspet.com/ubb/Forum7/HTML/000230.html It has some very good information/links posted by Goob. Here are some further links that should help you. http://www.dog-play.com/ethics.html To name some of the things a reputable breeder will be well informed about:
