Yes, you should always test for STD's in breeding dogs. If you have a stud, make sure that the ***** gets a brucellosis test done before breeding to her.
Brucellosis in the female dog lives in the vaginal and uterine tissue and secretions. Litters are commonly aborted, usually in the last two weeks of gestation, or the puppies may die shortly after birth. The female may never appear to be pregnant at all. She can spread the bacteria to other animals through her urine, aborted fetuses, or most commonly through the act of breeding.
In males, the brucella bacteria live in the testicles and seminal fluids. An infected male is just as dangerous as the female as he can spread it via his urine or semen. Oftentimes, there are no signs except in advanced cases when the testicles may be uneven in size. Since Brucella canis is mainly spread by the act of breeding, it is paramount to test all canines, male and female, prior to breeding. Test between every breeding of different animals. In other words, if a male or female was tested one year ago but has bred since, it must be tested again.

There is a type of cancer, called CTVT (canine transmissible venereal tumor) which is transmitted mainly through sexual contacts, but may also be passed on as a dog bites, sniffs or licks the tumor-affected areas. The cancer is rarely fatal and goes away after three to nine months - however, it is present in the dog long enough for it to pass it on to other dogs.

Yes, but it can be avoided simply by not 'getting down to business' with anyone from Liverpool.... though joking aside, I think dogs do get STDs too.

sure can, but really no one should be breeding a dog Male or Female, if it's showing signs of disease down below.

Yes they can. All responsible breeders insist on seeing proof of a recent negative brucellosis test for male dogs and female dogs.
