where do i advertise a pedigree 2 yr old male for stud?

Question

I have a very handsome 2 yr old staffy (full pedigree fully inoculated upto date with boosters) very good temprement lives with four other dogs of various breeds I would like to put him to stud but havnt got a clue where or how to start HELP

Answer 1

You could try the Our Dogs . But must warn you most breeders prefer to use dogs that are champions or show dogs . You need to find out if there are any tests that need to be done on staffies ie hip score , eye tests etc . Am sure if you type in Staffordshire bull terrier in web search they will have a web site with useful information .

Answer 2

There are many places that you can advertise your dog at stud. The Kennel Club has a Guide on its website called Thinking of Using Your Dog at Stud which you may find of some interest. Follow this link to find this, and other Kennel Club Information Guides - http://www.thekennelclub.org.uk/item/483

Answer 3

Registered means absolutely nothing, up to date on boosters mean nothing. What does mean something is an impeccible pedigree, having had and passed genetic health testing (OFA/PennHip, CERF/PRA, Thyroid, etc), temerament testing done & passed, being either shown to points/championship or being evalauted to insure a dog meets the breed standard..if you do all of taht and meet all the responsible breeder requirements it isn't hard to find people who want to breed to your boy.
Of course you can not do any of the above and still get "girls" however it would be doing so irresponsibly.

Answer 4

Post an ad on www.neuteryourdog.com.

Being handsome and inoculated doesn't make him a prime stud.

Is he a Champion? Does he come from Champion lines? Have you had his hip OFA and eye CERT done? If not, a "real" breeder won't even consider him and you'll be reduced to the ranks of Backyard Breeder

Answer 5

If you have proper certification get in touch with the Kennel Club and see if they have a register. Try and find some Staff breeders, perhaps go and see the person that bred your dog and see if they need sires. To breed pedigree dogs in the U.K. you have to be registered with the Kennel Club and also the "pedigree" of your dog has to be registered with the Kennel Club. Good luck. I think the image of Staffs needs a boost. All of the ones I have met have been very sweet animals.

Answer 6

my advice would be your local vet for neutering. just because he is good looking to you, doesn't mean that he meets the breed standards. since it sounds like you have never shown him, you won't be able to make any money with him as a stud, if you have shown him, you would already know the answer to your question. and just because he has a full pedigree doesn't mean anything. puppy mill puppies have full pedigrees too, it just means that they are full blooded, but it doesn't mean that they are good breeding stock, and don't have hereditary health problems.

Answer 7

for a dog to be used at stud,top breeders will first exhibit their animals at championship shows,whereby he should prove his worth by winning,he should also have all of the correct health testing for his breed,and it is more usual for the ***** owner to approach you at the shows if they deem your dog to be worthy enough,after studying the pedigrees to be sure of them being a really good match

Answer 8

Has he been tested for L-2-HGA Hydroxyglutaric Aciduria?
Has he had all of his eye testing done?
A reputable breeder will want to see proof (certificates) That these tests have been done.

Answer 9

You should NOT put him up for stud. It dosent matter if he has papers or not, the breeder sold him to you as a pet....KEEP IT THAT WAY.
Breeding is not as easy as it sounds.......

Answer 10

There is no regiser for dogs at stud
