I was wanting to know when a male was able to breed if you can help me please let me know.

as soon as he gets his KKL, Sch3, and can take out the trash and not minute before <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

Sorry, that's the *wrong* question for a working dog forum......

Feeling mellow this morning Will? <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smirk.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

Here you go, about 6 months. Less if he lives in a trailer. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/tongue.gif" alt="" />

I would be glad to share my opinions with you while not ridiculing but giving you an honest answer, because it depends.

QUESTIONS:
____________
WHAT ACCOMPLISHMENTS HAVE YOU DONE WITH THE DOG, ANY TITLES?

IF NO TITLES, WHAT LEVEL OF TRAINING IS THE DOG AT, WHAT IS HE DOING FOR YOU.

DO YOU KNOW ATLEAST 3 GENERATIONS BACK EVERY DOG SIRES & DAMS?

IF YOU HAVE A FEMALE IN MIND ANSWER THE SAME QUESTIONS FOR HER.

AWAY FROM WORK WHAT IS THE DOGS TEMPERMENT AROUND PEOPLE AND STRANGE THINGS.

WHAT IS YOUR PURPOSE FOR WANTING TO BREED?

WHAT TYPE OF PEOPLE DO YOU BELIEVE WILL BE INTRESTED IN YOUR PUPS OR HOPE TO BE?

IF THEY ARE TO BE WORKING DOGS, DO YOU KNOW ENOUGH TO SUCCESSFULLY BEGIN THEIR IMPRINTING?

This will be all the questions for now. Answer these and I may have some more and I am sincerely going to attempt to help you make an informed decision. This post is not meant to put you on the spot and ridicule you. Breeding is not something to take lightly and if you have to ask what age can a male start breeding, you may need someone to help you get some insight into whether this is a good idea or not. I would say for someone new to dogs or working dogs, to wait and not breed until you have learned enough to know what it takes to be a good breeder and have a specific purpose for breeding. However people will still do what they want so saying don't breed right now with out giving you solid reasons pertaining to your dog and situation won't help any, and who knows, newbies CAN run into some excellent dogs that maybe worthy of being bred and this maybe your case, but atleast make an informed decision.

Are you asking to determine how soon you have to nueter your pup before he starts getting in troble?

Dennis is right. You need to spay at 6 months if you want to make sure to do it before there are any problems.

Thank You so much. I really fel silly asking this but we just wanted to know cause we want to have a litter but then we want to have them both fixed. These are the answers to what you have ask. Again Thank You So Much!!!
1. Very well house trained. This is not a working dog it is just my own pet that I have several people wanting one It is a Lhasa Apso and A frined of mine got a male so we were going to let my bitch have one litter so some of our other friends could have one.
2. My dog is trained good when we go out she stays righ with me but we really are not doing a bunch of training persay.
3.Yes on both dogs we have had the chance to find these things out.
4. These questions are answered for both dogs.
5. Well this is not a working dog and both dogs love people and are well behaived in public.
6. So that our friends that have been with our dogs sence we have had them can have one. Our group of friends is very close so they have spent alot of time with both dogs.
7.The people who will want the dogs are our friends.

Ginger,
I mean this in a nice way, but you shouldn't breed the dog, period. The breeding isn't going to contribute anything to the improvement of the breed, and the reason that you're planning to breed is a poor one. Your dog is a pet, neuter him.

Send your friends to the local Humane Society and have them adopt a shelter dog - everyone wins there.
