My mom is wanting to stud out her toy poodle and I would like some more info on how to go about doing this.?

Answer 1

Your mom needs to do all this first.
#1 show the poodle and get his championship title. He needs to be appropriate size, standard and age.
#2 have all gentic and health tests done to be sure he wont pass on any problems to his puppies, and passed by a certified vet
#3 have a completely mental and personality balanced male dog on her hands
#4 the dog should have a sperm count test done to be sure he can even breed and produce puppies. No one is going to pay money for a dog thats not "Proven"
#5 There are enough people out there with decent, medically tested champion poodles in the area that want a stud dog to breed them.
IF you dont do all of this you will not be consider a good or reputable breeder and no one except backyard breeders and people that should not be breeding dogs, will want to use your un-extraordinary poodle to breed. There are thousands of poodles in rescues and shelters in the world, there doesnt need to be more pet quality poodle on the street to be turned into these rescues. Think before you breed please.

Providing your male have been vet check, and a year old. You can put ads in the newspaper for stud service. I charge the price of one puppy for stud service. The female should come to your home, females handle coming to a new place better then a male would. Make sure the female has been check and OK by a vet. Ask to see the vet papers. Always have a contract stating everything you expect. Have the owner of the female sign a copy and you keep one for yourself. I like having the owner stick around while I am doing stud service. That is to protect the female if she is scared. I like the owner to go in and clam her down. She would be less likely be afraid if the owner was there if something goes wrong. Just keep your distance and let them do their thing. I hope this helps.. there are so many books you can read on this matter also. Good luck to you.

Had this dog come from a reputable breeder, you wouldn't need to be asking for any kind of help here. That breeder would have sold the dog as show potential and have already been working to help your mom get in the proper direction of training and showing him to show that he is a fine example of his breed and worthy of being bred at all. The breeder would also have people that would likely be interested in breeding with her lines and would probably make referrals to this fine example of the breed.

The problem is that you're here asking for help, which pretty much tells anyone with common sense that your mom's dog isn't from a good breeder. This means the dog should not be bred as it will only put you in the class of a backyard breeder... and there are plenty of them causing dogs to end up being put down in shelters every single day.

Alter and enjoy your pet and leave the breeding to those who know how and are willing to do it right. If you really do wish to breed some day, begin now with educating yourself better, find a good breeder who will mentor you and take the time to learn all you need to know. Breeding is way more involved than just putting a male and female together and far too many people do this every day and add to our overpopulation problems. Please don't add to that.

Answer 4

Is he a Champion? Does he come from Champion lines? Has he had his eye, hip and health certifications? Does he conform to breed standards and have exceptional qualities that are worth genetically passing on? If not, a "real" breeder won't give him a 2nd look as a stud. Put an ad in the newspaper and consider him a Backyard Breeding Stud.

Answer 5

Is he AKC registered? Does he have a friendly, non-aggressive temperament? Is he up-to-date on vaccinations and been tested for hip problems and other health problems?

If the answer to ANY of the above questions is "no", then get the dog neutered and forget about breeding him. But if they all checked out as "yes", try putting an ad in your local newspaper or bargain finder.

Answer 6

Don't do it. If you don't know anything about it, don't even do it. There are reputable breeders out there if you want another poodle.

Or even better, go to the animal shelter/pound and get another poodle.

Answer 7

First she would need to have all the genitic testing that is done for her breed. Does the dog have a show or competion record? When she has all the test results she can advertise him. Does she belong to any dog clubs? Word of mouth can help.
