This is true, Black Hand.
Young bitches' bones aren't fully-calcified yet, so they're more pliable, so breeding them on their first/second heat helps "break them in" for motherhood.
They may make dumb mistakes, but they learn the ropes so-to-speak, and it tends to mature them out too.
Yeah, that's what I was thinking of. I was going to say more flexible but I thought it might sound confusing. But that's what I was getting at. Where as an older bitch who never has had pups might actually be the one with the rougher time than the young bitch.Originally Posted by CA Jack
True Black H waand But Jack wasn't referring to the gyp he was referring to me Breeding to the other male that wasn't up to standard as far as health wise so he said he agree I should Breed to the other male. I did proceed with Breeding to Crabb's Rooster Red so only time will tell.
Jack i normally agree with your point of view on most aspects of these dogs, breeding young dogs is something I just can't do. Yea sometimes its needed as a stud dog maybe old and a person may want to get one last litter off him. To make it common practice to breed young animals isnt a good thing bc you dont know what traits youre putting into the next generation nor do you know what traits are lacking. A person can know as much as they want bout a certain animal but if thats made common practice it's a recipe for disaster. How does a person know which individual is undesirable? Sure a cur can produce, a young dog, or even a cold one I just think it shouldnt be made common practice
