Well, not exactly you, but you'd like your dog to have pups. Why? Think about your reasons you like puppies, you want your children to experience the miracle of birth, you'd like to have another dog perhaps to replace an aging one. Now let's think why you don't want pups. Sure, you like pups, but do you like them, say ten at a time? Do you have a place for that many pups when they get say three months old? You may be stuck with several of them for some time especially If yours Is a breed not terribly popular. Your children can go out at lambing time if you want them to have a nature lesson. You want another dog, but surely not 10 other dogs, that you and mavbe very few others want. Al so, if you are planning on man ing a little money on your pups, forget it! It takes more money to raise a litter than you are likely to make from them. Let's talk about an alterna tive. Why not buy a pup, or maybe even an older dog, or have one given to you? Rais ing pups is expensive extra food, vet bills, including tail docking and dew-claw removal, property destroyed by ambitious nuns, and mavbe a stua iee, and shots for pups. You could buv a pup from a good breeder for that amount of money, and have a really fine specimen of your breed. One that you can really be proud of, and that will do what it is supposed to do. The ideal time to get a pup is about 7 weeks of age, that is the time they begin to play and be cute. You can give that one pup all the love and attention it needs, for puppies are like children, if they are going to be worthwhile adults they must have love and discipline while young. Ask yourself if you are doing your breed a favor by adding to it. Are these pups really go ing to be fine examples of their breed? Breeders give a name to people who breed their dog to the one down the street, they call them Back Yard Breeders! So unless you know you have an outstanding dog of its breed, and know to whom it should be bred, why not leave the breeding to the professionals and give your dog a rest. j Next time how to pick a pup.
