Answer 1

Why are you wanting to breed your dog? Is she an exceptional specimen
of her breed, conforming closely to the breed standard? Has she any hard to
find virtues that would be a critical addition to the breed? Has she been
tested for genetic problems that can be passed on from the parents and does
she have an exceptional temperament? Has she been shown, and at least is on
her way to being a champion, if not already one?

If you want to bred and do it ethically, you must be committed to
learning all about your breed..its standard, its genetic diseases, the good,
the bad and the ugly. You must understand that your female could die. You
might have nothing but dead puppy bodies whether she lives or not. You might
have to pay for an emergency c-section to save her and/or the pups. If you
lose her, you are responsible for all the feeding of the pups, which will
require you to feed them every 1.5 to 2 hours. ALL hours, not just the
daylight ones. The puppies will poop 24/7, and this becomes your
responsibility to clean whether the mother survives to raise them or not.
The pups still need to be vet checked, vaccinated and dewormed no matter
what. When they reach certain stages of their lives, they need proper
socialization and guidance. They will be your responsibility at least for 8
weeks. After that 8 weeks, you are responsible to make sure they never wind
up homeless in a shelter or rescue. To ensure that, you will have to do
homechecks and make up contracts to be certain the new owners are going to
take care of them for life. You have to agree to always be available to take
back your puppies no matter what.

If you want to be a responsible breeder, look up your local breed
club, jump in and educate yourself. Listen to the advice of REPUTABLE
breeders and learn all you can about your dog. If you just wanna make
puppies to sell for lotsa money, don't bother. We have too many of those
already.

Answer 2

Your reasons for breeding are not valid or responsible.

The longer you allow her to be intact the higher her risk for mammary cancer and pyometria become..you would be far better off getting her spayed asap.

Breeding is far more involved then putting two dogs together and producing puppies and the odds of getting one "like your dog" are not that high..Your dog only makes up 50% of the puppy so therefore the pups wil lall differ in personality.

Also before breeding you need to get genetic health testing done,research pedigrees of both your dog and the prospective father to make sure they have good genetic health, temperament, are good representatives of the breed and compliment each other.. Your dog either needs ot be shown and championed or at least pointed or evaluated to make sure she meets breed standard.
Be advised that toy breeds such as Chihuahuas have a high rate of pregnancy & whelping complications and also a high rate of stillborn puppies among other problems.

As for heat a dog usually goes in heat @ 6 months after the last heat.

Answer 3

Dogs do not go into heat in particular months. They generally go into heat every 6 to 8 months depending on the individual dog. You will notice her vulva start to swell about 2 weeks prior to her coming into heat. Then she will start bleeding. Get her to the male about 2 days after she has started bleeding and let them breed until HE is no longer interested (females can be become pregnant up to a WEEK after they are no longer bleeding).

Answer 4

months that have the letter r in them

yes, I had to be rude.

if you don't know, I suggest you don't breed her. If you want a puppy, buy one from a REPUTABLE breeder.

What difference does it make if the pup "has the same blood running through her"?

If you breed your little dog you must realize you may be risking her life. Ya!

Answer 5

You can't get an exact date, but you can tell when she's in heat if she starts bleeding or if your boy dog is constantly on her or sniffing her. You could call your vet and get more on how to know about her being in heat and what to do when the litter comes.

Answer 6

All you need to know about breeding.
