Look, I know you think we are all having a dig at you, but you must admit that your posts change all the time. One minute you're not sure what to do, then theres a bloke down the road that will help you, so you must have seriously considered letting her have pups to have made contact with other people about it.
There are quite a few breeders on here, we share our stories and no-one can be happier than when we hear of a fellow dogsey member having a litter and we coo over the photos etc. The difference is that these breeders have gone to the trouble of health testing, only breeding from KC registered dogs/bitches so they can prove the lineage and having a waiting list for pups.
If you have the jab this time, then go through the right channels if you do decide to breed, I know for sure that everyone will be pleased for you.
How things are at the moment you run the risk of losing your bitch if you can't get her to the vets at the drop of a hat if she is pregnant and needs urgent medical assistance, can't get the pups to the vets to be checked before they go to their new homes and you cannot 100% hand on heart tell prospective puppy owners that you have bred this litter with the very best of intentions.
