At what age can you breed female pugs. (she is 14 months old)?

Answer 1

whenever they go into heat. It differs with some breeds as for age.

Answer 2

If you don't know the answer to this question- you should definitely not be breeding dogs. No offense- but you need to do a LOT of research before breeding. There's more to it than just putting 2 dogs together. You need to have your dogs hips and elbows x-rayed, eyes examined and basic bloodwork done as well as any other breed-specific testing done to be sure your dog is healthy before you breed it. The male you breed her to should also have the same testing done. Also you need a brucellosis test done on both male and female to make sure they don't carry brucellosis which can kill your entire litter. Check out www.pugs.org You should know your dog and the sire's pedigree thoroughly to make sure there are no genetic diseases that your dog might pass on- and to do that you'll need a mentor that is familiar with your dog's pedigree. You should not breed unless you show your dog in dog shows and can prove that your dog is worthy of being bred- that is the purpose of shows- to evaluate breeding stock. There are far too many pets in this world that are being put down- only the best dogs that are genetically sound and physically sound from a structural perspective should even be considered for breeding. That's why respectable breeders put restrictions on the breeding of puppies that they sell. Do your dog a favor and get her spayed and love her. Don't perpetuate bad genes- and for goodness sake don't breed her for money. Dog breeding is not a cheap and easy way to make a buck.
There is far too much risk to your girl- including losing her and all her puppies if something goes wrong. According to The Pug Dog Club of America, pugs usually need cesareans and that's something else you should consider. I tell you all of this from experience as a dog fancier and exhibitor for quite a few years. And to answer your question- no dog- even males should be bred before age 2- but only if all the other things I described have also been done- testing, research, pedigree knowledge, and finding a suitable sire that will ensure you are breeding according to the breed standard for pugs- you'll also find that at the Pug Dog Club of America website.

Answer 6

that's really young,though she is breed-able,you may have to keep an eye on her with her pups because sometimes young dogs aren't good mothers,really it will depend on her breed,the smaller dogs seem to do better than large breed when it comes to young motherhood.
