if i bread my brindle with a solid white boxer what are my chances of getting a soild white boxer that is heal

Answer 1

SPAY OR NEUTER!!!!!!!!

1.Not all dogs are built to be bred.

Most pets, although lovable, are not of breeding quality because they have genetic defects and other problems that should not be perpetuated. People who breed dogs for a living are very careful about choosing which dogs they will breed together based on physical characteristics and behavior. Some people decide that it would be fun to breed and just start looking for a dog that has the proper equipment and is willing. This can be a huge mistake.

2. There are already too many dogs in the world.

Breeding your pet is a serious endeavor and should not be taken lightly. There are far too many pets that end up in shelters without good homes. If your breed of dog has large litters, what will you do if you are unable to sell the puppies? Do you really want to contribute to the massive problem of pet overpopulation?

3. Dogs that aren’t neutered face serious health risks.

Consider your dog’s own health. Male dogs that are neutered are less likely to be hit by cars, because unaltered males have a very strong urge to roam and find a fertile female. Male dogs will go over or under fences, through doors and windows, and will pull leashes out of unsuspecting hands in quest of a mate.

Additionally, neutering greatly reduces the incidence of prostatic disease and eliminates testicular cancer in males, and cuts down on breast cancer in females. The possibility of uterine infections is also eliminated by spaying.

4. Female dogs used for breeding may have unwelcome visitors.

If you spay your dog, you will not have to chase persistent male dogs out of your yard. Also, you won’t have to worry about cleaning up messy heat cycles.

5. Be prepared to work like a dog when your pet goes into labor.

Many people do not realize just how much work and expense is involved with letting dogs have puppies. Getting the mother through pregnancy is the easy part, but labor is truly laborious for dog and owner alike. Dogs usually decide to have their puppies at the most inconvenient times, like 2:00 in the morning when veterinary hospitals are closed.

If your pet develops a problem during delivery, it means at least the expense of an emergency call. If the complications are life threatening, you must be prepared, especially if you have a breed of dog that has a broad head like a pug, to pay for an emergency C-section. It is very distressing to have to leave home in the middle of the night, worry about your pet, get a large veterinary bill and then try to explain to your boss why you cannot possibly come to work the next day.

6. It can be devastating when the puppies die.

There is always the prospect of the loss of some or all of the puppies. A neonatal mortality rate of 10 to 30 percent is considered normal. And, it’s easy to lose a puppy if you don’t have the experience or knowledge to care for newborns. Because puppies are not able to regulate their own body temperature initially, you may need to supplement their environment with heat.

7. Not all dogs make the best mothers.

If your female doesn’t have enough milk to feed all its puppies, or decides that feeding her offspring is not her cup of tea, it will be your responsibility to provide them with nutrition every three to four hours, round the clock. And how many mouths are there to feed?

Another aspect of puppy care that you can look forward to if your dog wants nothing to do with her brood is the manual stimulation of urination and defecation. Until puppies are three weeks old they will only void if directly stimulated. If mom isn’t doing this, you will need to take a moistened cotton ball and gently rub the urogenital area until the babes begin to urinate and pass stool. Failure to do this can result in some pretty unhappy puppies.

8. Good luck seeing a profit!

Your last responsibility before they go to a new home is to have them dewormed, vaccinated, and examined by a veterinarian. You will want to make sure that you have budgeted a sufficient amount for this purpose. Needless to say, if you decide to breed mixed breed puppies, you have no opportunity to recoup this expense.

Puppies are a lot of fun and it can be very exciting when they are born, but more often than not, owners find themselves in over their heads when they decide to endeavor into breeding.

Answer 2

You really shouldn't intentionally try for a white boxer. They're beautiful in their own way, but it's a fault and therefore if a boxer is born white the dog should be fixed and sold as pet quality. The chances of a white boxer depend on the genetics of the parents. It is not a fluke, it is not a "defect", it is all genetic. The white gene in boxers is a recessive gene. Both parents must carry the gene to produce a white boxer. The part where it gets tricky is that just because both parents carry the gene doesn't mean they express it. Which is why sometimes a fawn boxer and a brindle boxer (like yours) will produce a white puppy. (Contrary to popular belief, white boxers usually are not albino) There is nothing strange about a boxer being born white. It is very common in the breed, despite being a fault.

Answer 3

If your male is white then there is a good chance of getting a white pup, but if the female is white then there is a 40% chance that you might get maybe one, depending also on the genes of the two dogs, if there is white dogs in the brindle ones family then ther is a greater possibility of you getting more than one out of the litter

Answer 4

It could happen but the white coloration is honestly a genetic defect & it used to be that breeders destroyed them @ birth....your chances are probably not THAT good but possible, Im sure if your asking this then you know the problems A LOT of all white boxers, aussies, etc etc etc can face

Answer 5

Depends on the genotype of your dog.

Article regarding coat color and pattern inheritance in Boxers:

Articles regarding pigment-related deafness in Boxers:

http://www.boxerunderground.com/bu2000/dec2001/deafness_in_white_boxers.htm

http://www.cinemaboxers.com/whites.htm

Considering the increased odds of getting a dog that is unilaterally or bilaterally deaf, my question would be, "Why are you breeding for solid white?"

And the bigger question - "With the number of Boxers already in Rescue who need homes, why are you breeding at all?"

If you want a white Boxer, check out http://www.petfinder.com and look for a Boxer rescue. Odds are there is a white boxer out there who needs a home already.

Answer 6

Why on earth would you breed a white boxer?!? Are you trying to produce dogs with disabilities?

Answer 7

You should not be breeding dogs at all.
And no one should breed for disqualifing faults and it is like you are just asking for genetic defects.

Answer 8

If you are asking such a TOTALLY ignorant question,then you have ABSOLUTELY **NO BUSINESS** breeding ANYTHING,let alone dogs!!!!
More than 1/3 white is a MAJOR /DISQUALIFYING***FAULT***!!!

If it wasn't BUCKETED at birth,it SURE should be ALTERED!!!
You ****DON'T*** breed FAULTS ON PURPOSE!!,ya moron.

Answer 9

breAd your dog...hahahaa....what are the chances...lol!
