I have a purebred male Rott and and purebred female Chow. My chow just came into heat and we didn't realize it. I don't think they succeeded in mating but I was wondering if they did would it kill her to have the pups? And would it ruin her from producing purebred Chows in the future? I heard that once a purebred is mixed w/ another breed, they are ruined and will forever produce mixed dogs. Is this true?

oh, and just to let everyone know, I don't believe in getting pure bred dogs "fixed" it's just not my thing.

no that's not true at all.If she ends up having pups unless she has some kind of complications she will be fine.And there would be no rott sperm in her to ruin any future litters.

You're planning on going into a breeding program with this dog eventually and you don't even know a thing about what you are doing? Some purebreds are just that, purebred but not of breeding quality. They're called pet stock and usually cost no more than three or four hundred dollars. A breeding quality dog can cost into the thousands and are the only dogs that should be used for producing offspring.
If you are so naive about a purebred Chow mixing with a Rottie and spoiling her from producing purebreds in the future you have no business breeding dogs.
Educate yourself in dogs and dog-breeding before you go any further with this idea or, for knowledgeable dog breeders everywhere, get your dogs neutered.

No, it's not true that a dog would be "ruined" but what you need to do is to have your dogs spayed and neutered. There are far too many dogs in need of homes (many, MANY purebred Chows and Rotts and Chow and Rott mixes) and far too many of them are euthanized because there aren't enough homes for them. Breeding needs to be left to the people who are bettering their breed of choice, and who aren't breeding mixes.
In addition to not contributing to the pet overpopluation, by spaying/neutering, the risk of your dog developing certain diseases and behavior problems could be reduced, if not eliminated.

no i don't think it is... if you have a purebred with a purebred... im sure it will be fine....
but if your not showing any of the dogs.. u should get them spayed and neutered...
just so you know if you female does have this pup... it combo will not be a good result... may be aggressive

i don't think these two breeds should be mixed. i don't know much about rotts but i have known some chows and they make me uneasy! just don't do it.

kill her to have the pups?... they're gonna be mean but they're no different from any other puppies birth wise... no, she will most certainly produce whatever breed she's been bred to, she will not always produce Rottweiler cross pups. please get your dogs spayed/neutered.

No I do not think its true. I also do not think it will ruin her in the future.
