I would definitely recommend that. Our breeder is very knowledgeable and has helped us immeasurably. It’s important to know the background of your dog so that when you breed, you don’t pass on negative or even deadly traits.
When done right, it can be very rewarding. The two boys that we have now both have the same great grandfather, our Champion, the best dog that ever lived. :) I may be a bit subjective about that, but he was wonderful.
Best wishes.
Thanks. Glad to hear. Are breeders competitive and not happy about one wanting to have a breed? I will make a commitment. A serious one.
