Why is it not good to breed a dog on its first heat?
The dog could have complications and have to have a C section, a puppy could get stuck, or the dog could die.
For the same reasons that humans do not breed as soon as they get their period. The dog is not mentally or physically mature until 2 years of age. There are many potential complications for the mother, and many young mother dogs will not care for puppies as well as more mature females.
How much is a puppy from a puppy mill?
Not worth your money. Puppies from mills are unhealthy, mentally and physically. And you'll end up paying more in the long run in veterinary bills. Besides, there's a very large chance that the puppy you buy may die from diseases like parvovirus or canine distemper, if it isn't affected mentally by a genetic defect. You're better off adopting a puppy from a reputable breeder that actually takes care of the puppies as well as the dogs used to breed puppies from and treat them like family, or adopting from a local animal shelter.
So please, take this advice and do not buy puppies from pet stores, or breeders that are questionable in how they appear to be raising their puppies. Because in the end, all they're interested is making money.
You really shouldn't buy puppy mill puppies. They are prone to bad health due to bad breeding, and their mothers are often kept in very poor conditions.
Usually if they're rescued, they're free to adopt. Or you may pay into the organization that saved them. Which may not be much ($100 at most) other wise to buy from shops or mills(shops buy from mills) it's like $400-$600+. I have a rescue schnoodle.(Schnauzer poodle) he was about shop price from the organization. But worth it.
Mill dogs have a LOT of diseases just so you know. You may have to drop extra cash on them.
£600 to £700 pound at least for pedigree pups

Can you breed dogs to be blind?
Yes you could eventually. There is a blind gene in the dalmation breed. Normal ethical breeders would want to breed the bad gene out of their gene pool. This is putting it all very simply. Why would anyone want to breed a bad gene into their breed?
Will your dogs puppies have bent tails if the mother's tail is?
That depends on how the mother's tail got bent. If it got bent in an accident, then most likely they won't, but if the mother's tail was bent when she was born, then it is possible that at least some of the puppies will also have a bent tail.
Who is the brunette actress in the vonage puppy commercial?
I'll take a very likely guess at it being Hannah Fierman. The eyes, brows, hair and petite stature make me think I'm correct.
Is a 9 year old miniature poodle too old to breed for the first time?
In my opinion, yes 9 years old is too old. Why not spay her so she can live a longer life. As they age, things start to happen, such as pyometrias (infection of the uterus - can cause death), mammary tumors, perianal tumors, etc. You will cut down her risk of these things if you spay her. Breeding her at this age is not advised. It takes a lot out of them to be pregnant, whelp the pups and take care of the pups. Why not give her an easier life?
