Well today(8/22/06) I noticed my dog started her heat cycle, Yes I am aware that spaying and neutoring is the best way to go, the thing is that she is a pure bread German Sheperd, and she has the gene for producing White puppies. Well it is not as if I don't have any, buyers. My Dogs Mother, and Grandmother (both owned by myself) gave an average of 7 puppies, the most they have produced were 9 puppies,so i went ahead and asked Friends and family members, if they were interested in owning a puppy, So now that i know the puppies are wanted, i wanted to know when i should take my dog to the stug dog??? How many days after she starts her heat cycle????
Please, if you plan in talking about spaying or neutoring, dont answer this queston, serious answer please!!!

I have no idea where Megan H got her info.
A dog (any breed) is in heat for approximately 21 days
As an average the first 7 to 9 days is her flirt mode, she will play, chase and allow the male to mount, but NOT breed.
The 10th to 16th day is when she will be the most receptive and fertile. She will stand still when the male mounts and allow him to breed.
It is during this time that she will have the best chance to become pregnant.
For the last 6 to 8 days of her heat she will not be interested in any thing the male has to say to her, and will most likely rip his nose off if he gets too near her business end.
There are always exceptions to the above dates, don't allow your dog out of the house until at least 25 days to be sure she is totally out of heat.
You will want to do research on white genes in dogs. Something about it being lethal if bred too close?????
NOTE the female will allow ANY male to breed her during her receptive time. Please watch her, she will be able to crawl under a 1 inch space, climb a 60 ft fence and chew through metal to get to her hearts desire.....even if it is the next door neighbors red bone hunting dog.
It is best to allow her to visit the male at least two times, with at least 24 hours between the breedings.
You will want them to be in a small area when they breed so you can semi control her movement.
You don't want her to pull the male all over a huge yard, they can be "locked" for as long as 45 minutes.
It is during the lock that the male is most susceptable to damage to his personal parts. That is why a smaller area is best.

hmm it sounds as though youve had puppies in the past? So why would you be asking this? here goes......dogs have a heat cycle of about 3 weeks, a week going in, a week in, and a week going out. generally at the end of the second week into the 3rd they are ready.....they start flagging....etc. If you want to know for sure you can progestrone tests done to measure the rise in her progesterone level and your vet may be able to do vaginal smears to see how far along she is. Not all vets are willing or able to do repro. If you decide to do progesterone start now as you will need a baseline reading. If not you can try her with the stud, see how they like each other. Generally if shes willing shes ready, but beware if shes not, its likely shell let him know. And by the way its neutering, not neutoring........whos mentoring you through all of this?

In working canines, whichever form the working line takes is frequently the way the canine looked and behaved a hundred years in the past and is the way the canine might desire to proceed to be. The teach line canines might desire to be taken out of the breeding gene pool because of the fact a working canine, who can no longer paintings, isn't a breed of canine, this is ineffective. A lab that could no longer retrieve geese isn't a lab, it somewhat is a mongrel that seems rather resembling a lab. A border collie with 30 pounds of fur topping in at 80 pounds and is petrified of sheep isn't a BC, this is as useful because of the fact the great pomeranian you stated! God I want shall we forcefully take over the presidency of the AKC!!! LOL!!!

Ok well you always breed on the 9th day and just to make sure your female does nto go ionto stress have the stud come to her. It would be a lot more convientant. I hope you have thought over that the stud dog's owner either het's pick of the litter or a stud fee.

Well, I guess everyone thinks they have a good reason for becoming a backyard breeder.
It is sad that between you and the stud dogs owner you do not know when to breed. And you have had a dog have puppies before!!!!!!! Did you not learn anything??????
And it is N-E-U-T-E-R-I-N-G.

I don't know, but you shouldn't be asking here. You should have a breeder who is mentoring you, and they should be able to help you out. Who sold you your GSD? Contact them and ask them to mentor you through the process. You should not do it without professional assistance.
Good luck.
