I agree with KitKat but that did not answer your question.
The heat cycle has 2 main phases. There will be about 7-10 days of spotting. After the spotting has stopped then your dog is most fertile for 5-7 more days. Place her with a male near the end of the first stage. Monitor them so you know when they tie (mate and stick). Allow them to tie a couple times to ensure a successful breeding.

Spay her. You do not know what your getting yourself into, and if you had actually researched breeding you would know when is best. If you breed her she could have up to 12 puppies, and that would be 12 vaccines and 12 more mouths to feed until their adopted (after weaning, at 8 weeks).. Then they should stay with their momma for 12 weeks to learn proper behavour. Please don't breed her. Are you even giving her a healthy corn and by-product free diet? The puppies could have deformeties. You have to have the mother vet checked around 5 times while she's pregnant and breeding a dog is very costly. Please get her spayed.

If you don't know, then it goes to show that you should NOT be doing it. It doesn't take much brains to buy a book on breeding and whelping. In fact, most libraries have them, and many websites will give you all the details. If you are too dumb to do the research yourself (outside this Yahoo board), you should not be doing it.

finish her championship first,,,,, then see if she clears all her health tests ( HIPS< EYES etc.) go to an AKITA show and speak with the breeders there... if your dog is gentically and physically a great AKITA - there will be people who will help you decide to breed..... if you don't want to go thru the proper steps,,,,, SPAY HER

I agree with the kitkat, unless she is great quality and worth breeding, don't . it is a lot of work. be responsible to who you sell your pups to, don't let the dollar sign cloud your conscience.
don't breed during her first year. can begin at the age of two and every other cycle.

Presumably, your ***** has been hipscored & eye tested, the same as the sire?
The right time to mate her is when she is ready, usually, but not always around 10th day of her season, all b1tches are different.

Unless you know her bloodlines and if she meets breed standards, don't breed her. Most pedigree's sold as pets are not breeding quality.
