| Why shouldn't I breed my dog? | |
| You Asked, We Answer. Frequently Asked Questions |
For every puppy born, three die in shelters. There are too many out there and not enough homes for them all.
Complications in birth and pregnancies happen all the time. You could face losing your dog to death, and all the puppies with her. Will YOU pay the $1200.00 for a much-needed emergency cesarean section when she cannot deliver the pups?
What about sexually-transmitted diseases? That stud dog you had pickled out may have one. They are more common than you think.
How about genetic diseases? They abound.
Breeding is not a careless affair, it is so much more than bringing bitch and stud together during a heat cycle.
