Hi Guest
The best time to mate Mia is when she has had all relevant health checks ..hip scored ??, also when you have decided why you want to breed ? do you have the room, do you already have potential new homes,do you have funds if something goes wrong and she need alot of medical attention, do you have the time needed to rear a successful litter, funds to feed them, get them vaccinated if you still have pups at 9 weeks.
Sorry to sound negative but lots of people just think ' I'd like a litter and go for it' without doing the proper research or health checks ect..and then wonder why everything comes un stuck.
Why not join the forum and you can then reply.
