If you don't know the answer to this, you don't need to be breeding dogs. We have quite enough breeders out there who don't know what they're doing. Do some research first!

You can't breed a Shipoo to anything.. They must all be spayed/neutered..
Being playful is no reason to breed a mixed breed litter.. The shelter is full of playful dogs.. Probably playful dogs with much better conformation and temperament than your little Shipoo.. Playful isn't a good excuse to breed.. Playful is a good reason to neuter and keep him as your playful pet.

I know he's a wonderful dog, but you should neuter him and not breed him. We have so many dogs breeding that being a really neat and playful dog is NOT a reason to breed a dog.
he can physically breed with any dog, but it's best if the other dog is close to his size.
If he's not 2 years old, he's too immature to breed.
Since he's not a purebreed, it doesn't matter what breeds he mates with, but dogs do best mating with dogs of similar size.
Bottom line... your comments do NOT indicate that you know what you should know to be a good, responsible breeder... so PLEASE neuter your dog. It's better for his health.

Please do not breed this dog. From the type name you provided it seems to be a cross between a Poodle and a Schipperke. These are purebreds, your dog is not. Since you have a male, what do you expect the owner of the female to do with the puppies? Few people will want them unless they are free. Will you take one? If you must breed your male, the female should be of comparable size.

First off, I have to say, PLEASE don't breed your dog.
www.aspca.org, and www.hsus.org, animal welfare organizations both have statistics on how bad the over population of animals is.
Here's a stat for you: nearly 575 dogs and cats are put to sleep EVERY HOUR because there are not enough homes.
And, getting your dog fixed will help reduce the risk of testicular cancer and other illnesses.
Please look into getting your dog fixed. If you want more dogs, go to your local animal control or shelter, I'm sure you'll find a new best friend waiting for you!

He is a mix so should not be used for breeding.
If you don't have time to take him to be neutered you most certainly don't have time for breeding on any level.

get him fixed NOW!!! the world is already overpopulated with animals because people dont get them fixed and think they can just become a breeder and not do their homework. half the time they breed the dogs and no one wants the puppies and they just get taken to a shelter and no one wants them and they get put down.

Any little dog will do. Be creative. I have some sort of poodle mix ,and she mated with some sort of spaniel bichon mix. They had beautiful friendly little puppies, that grew into well mannered house dogs. Mixed dogs are far better than purebreds, they are less likely to inherit bad genetic traits. Maybe a bichon, maltese, or cocker spaniel would be a good fit.
P.S. Don't listen to those people who say spay and neuter now. Mixed little dogs are in popular demand right now. I read someone say that nobody will want them unless they're free, thats not true. there are people who are willing to pay more than $200.00 per mixed little pups.
If everyone spayed and neutered their dogs, then there would be no dogs. Just you breeding your dog won't cause a pet overpopulation.

None - he is a mixed breed. Get him neutered. There are shelters full of mixed breed dogs that are being euthanized because there are not enough homes. Please do the responsible thing.
