How do I find a dog to breed my Pomeranian with?

Question

I have a 1 year old Pomeranian from a champion line that should soon be ready to breed. How do I go about finding a male dog to breed her with?

I have checked with the vet, she is healthy... Why I want to breed her is not for the money. All of you who have a pure bred dog obviously bought yours, so dont tell me about the SPCA.

Answer 1

I have bred litters in which every single puppy not only finished their championships but were siblings to a top rated dog in the breed, so don't believe everything anyone says just because they are convinced that no one should be breeding but them. If you want to breed Poms go to the Pom club of America and look at the protocols for the breed, consider the proper health clearances in that breed study breed type at some shows, study pedigrees of not only your dog but what you want to breed to and why. I will put in some links bellow so you can start on your journey of a wonderful hobby that will become an obsession. Because I know that you know that not only do your puppies deserve the best but the people that buy them deserve to have gotten their puppy from a well informed breeder who did the best they could.

Answer 2

First off she is to young to be bred, secondly simple vet exams are NOT adequete. As for champion line..were the parents champions??? Grandparents? or are the champions farther down the line? How many champions 1, 2??? If parents /grandparents weren't champions then "championline" means absolutely nothing and doesn't enter into the equation. Now with that said even if both of her parents were champions it does NOT mean she should be bred.Even in a litter produced by two champions from an all champion line a breeder is lucky to get 1 show/breeding quality puppy.
Here is the criteria that MUST be met BEFORE breeding:

1) after she is 2 years old
2) after she has had and passed genetic health testing
3) after her pedigree has been thoroughly researched for health, temperament and longevity
4) after she has been shown & pointed/championed or been evaluated by at least 3 unbiased, breed knowledgable people/judges to make sure she fits breed standard
5) only if she is registered by a legit registry...AKC/UKC/CKC (Canadian Kennel Club
6) after you have become knowledgable in the basics of breeding, whelping, newborn care
7) after you have become aware of the risks of pregnancy & whelping
8) after you are prepared for emergency situations that may arise..emergency c-section, mastitis treatment, infections, weak newborns, 24/7 feeding around the clock in case mom has low milk, no milk, toxic milk, becomes ill or dies or if a pup is weak..etc (be aware that toy breeds have a very high rate of emergency c-sections and other complications)

After all of the above conditions are met then you will not have to look for a stud..people with a good stud will be approaching you or you will have made contact already with responsible ethical breeders from the shows you have attended and shown in.

Any stud that you find otherwise will not be of breeding quality nor owned by someone responsible. Also any prospective mates MUST also meet all of the same criteria as your female must meet before breeding.

I really hate questions like this but since you ask I will give you .02 cents. Do you have the Pedigree Papers on her? If so, go back to the breeder you got her from and ask if they have a sire suitable to breed to her.

Do not look in pet shops, newspaper ads or signs on telephone poles. These are pet quality animals and should be spayed or neutered so that won't reproduce the same negative genetics.

Answer 4

If you are asking this question you should not be breeding your dog. There are too many homeless dogs at the SPCA and local shelters for you to want to be breeding. Leave the breeding to the experts who have dedicated their live's to improving the breed standard.

You really should ask yourself, why do I want to breed my dog?

How much time and money does it take to take care of a pregnant dog and then her litter?

How do I know the puppies will end up in a good loving home and not in a puppy mill, pet store, SPCA or shelter?

If you care anything at all about your dog you should not breed her.

Answer 5

If you have to ask on here, you shouldn't be breeding. 1 year old dogs should not be bred as they are still like puppies themselves agewise. Two is the minimum age. Would you bred your 13 year old daughter just because she could? Is she a champion herself? Then she shouldn't be bred. Has she been checked for luxating patella, PRA for her eyes, hip and elbow dysplasia, and temperament tested? If no, then she should not be bred. Do not endanger her life and health and add to the millions of animals being euthanized every year just because you want to make a buck. Please spay your dog.

Answer 6

SO what sports are you in? Are there no Poms there? If you bougnt champian breeding stock surely you are doing something with her. So check around your local kennel club, & look around the shows/trials you are going to......

If you are not doing any sport I have a HARD HARD time thinking you are not just looking at her as a cash cow & planning to rake in the $$$.

Answer 7

Ask your vet.
