What do you like about this subject?

Dogs are always willing to learn and please. They give so much of themselves and ask nothing in return but what we are willing to give.

What do you still hope to achieve/learn in this field?

To give back to the those that loves dogs as much as I do.

Something interesting about this subject that others may not know:

Something controversial or provocative about this subject

In my opinion, "show" dogs and "show people" tend to have the same personality.

Hi Ashley    Gestation is 63 from when the mating took, not necessarily from breeding.  Your female may be looking for a place to whelp her litter.  She should have her own whelping box with old towels

Hi Jessica    It's important to check with your local laws however that being said.  What stud service?  Your female didn't take so services weren't rendered.    A experienced and reputable stud owner
