Careful selection of parents is the first step to ascertaining that you breed good puppies. The father of the brood determines the sex of the puppies as he carried the sex-determining chromosomes. It is important for the professional dog breeder to have a complete understanding of dominant, recessive and mixed characteristics of the dog first before embarking in breeding.
There's no point in reinventing the wheel if you can model a successful breeder. Space is a consideration when starting this type of venture. Dog crates should be big enough for the breed you've selected to comfortably stand, turn around and lie down. Other costs to remember are things like the tools you'll need for breeding. Things like extra towels, nutritious adult and puppy food, scales, feeding bowls, suction bulbs, potential veterinary bills, vitamins, droppers, toys and more. The breeding of canines is a business, not a hobby.
Dog breeding is a fascinating experience, and achieving a successful dog breeding is no easy task. This activity depends on the detail, every little detail adds up like: good supplies, medical attention, nutrition, passion for the subject, etc.
If you are a beginner don't worry, your chances of successful dog breeding will increase over time. This acts like "business diary" that you can always consult if a problem arises during breeding.
Choosing a Mate. Successful dog breeding will also depend on the male, although males have less reproductive problems, they can still be there, problems like low sperm production, anatomical defects and infections.
Timing of the Mating. You should choose the absolutely best timing for mating. For this you'll want to measure the hormones levels of the female and her fertility. Remember that a successful breeding needs close attention. If there are still missing parts in your breeding knowledge I'd suggest that you read more about the subject on books or the Web.
