First, both dogs should be at least 2 yrs of age and have health testing done, both general and breed specific.

If testing comes back good on both dogs, then breeding can be considered.

Sometimes the owner of the stud dog gets pick of the litter or the can charge a stud fee. I've never heard of them getting both. If the breeding is not successful, it is usually tried again during the bit che's next heat.

Stud fee is usually paid when a successful breeding has been confirmed by a vet. Personally, I'd go along on the day of the vet visit.

Here's how you get paid--

You spend a heap of money to purchase a male dog of excellent breeding, usually in excess of a thousand bucks, likely several thousand bucks. Then you take that dog and work with it intensely and sucessfully show or field trial that dog to the point that other people think that of all the male dogs which are available yours is the one that would best improve the breed by breeding to it. You spend another heap of money getting your dog tested for communicable diseases, OFA X-rays, testing for genetic diseases and the like. You breed that dog to one of your own females, equally well bred, campaigned, and tested, and produce pups that are such outstanding specimens of their breed that other people want for their own and sucessfully field trial or show those pups intensively.

Then you spend another good chunk of money advertising your dog. After you've done all of this sucessfully, you might find someone who wants to breed to your dog. You then inspect their dog and it's papers and reject their dog for breeding if it isn't an excellent animal with a high probabliity of producing offspring that will improve the breed.

At that point, you breed the dog and accept the stud fee or wait for pick of the litter, whichever you agreed upon with the female's owner. But generally if the female does not produce a litter you are obligated to rebreed the female until she does whelp or refund the stud fee. In a pick of the litter arrangement if no puppies result all you get is a stud dog with a happy look on his face.

In other words, don't go at it thinking that you are going to profit from it. Most people will only recoup a small percentage of the money they spent buying, campaigning, testing, advertising, and raising their male dog from stud fees, and that's only if they manage to get people to breed to their dog and that is only if he's one of those dogs that manages to reproduce as good or better than he is. And many is the fine dog that never produces excellent pups, in which case no one is going to want to breed to him no matter how good an individual he is because it's the pups they want.

What you want to do is stud out your dog. This is how I handle the stud service. I charge 100.00 non refundable at the time of matting. I get 300.00 more before I sign the litter papers. If there is no puppies then I don't charge the 300.00. The stud service is usually the price of one puppy. Everyone does things different. Always have a contract when you stud out your dog. Also have both male and female vet check before matting. I like to see two matting's but if the customer wants more then that is fine too. Hope this helps.. it will give you some idea anyway.

This is from a contract I found on the web. Some words are censored in case Yahoo automatically screens them.

All fees are payment for the stud service only and are not to be construed as a guarantee of puppies. If the b***h fails to whelp or whelps fewer than two living puppies at birth, the owner of the b***h must notify the stud dog owner not more than 65 days after the date of the last mating. There shall be no refund in whole or part, but a return service to the same stud shall be provided at the same b***h's next heat if both are still available; if not available, to an agreed alternate.

You advertise and people with a female they wish to mate will call you. When the female gets pregnant you are intitled to either the cost of one puppy or first choice of the puppies. If the person says the dog never got pregnant then they have to give you a letter from a registered vet proving no pregnancy occured or the cost of a puppy;. If there is no pregnancy proven, you don't get paid.

AKC....says payment shall be upon sale of first pup or pick of litter after 8 weeks. A litter consit of one lieving pup upon 8 weeks. NO pups NO payment. Unless other arangments have been made either verably or writen.....And thats the BOTTOM LINE.

It's paid by the way and you shouldn't be breeding. Is your dog a champion? Have you had the appropriate testing completed?

Don't breed - there are enough dogs in the world and if you can't spell paid, chances are your dog is not a champion.

This will really depend on the dog's pedigree, if he has one. It all depends on the people too. They'll charge a "stud fee"....and if it don't take.....then too bad, or other's will let them get a second try at it. Also, they usually get the pick of the litter. So it would really depend on what you want, and how they're willing to deal.
