Breeding German Shepherd Dogs

Breeding German Shepherd Dogs can be rewarding, but requires commitment and a thorough evaluation of all available options. Many a beginner has discovered the hard way that breeding is far more than mating a dog and a bitch and selling the puppies; and that mistakes can be expensive. It is far better (and cheaper) to learn from someone else with a proven track record. In this informative book, drawing from 25 years of practical experience, the authors concisely and clearly set out all the aspects of being a successful breeder: from selecting the parents through to caring for the pregnant bitch, managing the whelping, rearing the puppies, as well as marketing and selling them to the right homes. Other large breeds can apply almost all the principles described in this book and the advice given can be of immense value to all breeders
