Small dogs I:e Border Terriers, Jack Russell Terriers, Papilons, Chiwauwau, Staffies are safe to have puppies at 2 years but some small dogs like these can get away with as little as 9 months. With terriers I:e Jack Russell, Border Terrier, Staffie Bulls, there healthy to have puppies AROUND the age of 2, a small bit before the age of 2 but with dogs with flat mussles I:e Pugs, Boston Terriers, Shar Pei, can somtimes struggle at births by quickly becoming out of breath, just make sure your always their to help them at it will be fine, with thses dogs, its good to defenantly wait till the age of 2 years or after. Other small more speacialy bred dogs such as the Chiwauwau and Papilon somtimes need a bit of help during births as they are very easily Domesticated dogs and the more domsticated a dog the more difficult the birth may be, these dogs can whelp the same age as terriers, AROUND the age of 2 I:e at small bit before 2. Bigger dogs need to wait till the age of 3, 2 1/2(minimum) it is healthy for any breed and size of dog to wait till the 2nd season/heat before breeding(having pups on the first heat can/will kill mother and pups) Please don't class your dog as a 'small' breed if it is any bigger then a Springer Spaniel, Staffie, (small)border collie or (small)Pittbull. If your dog is small but 'big-bonned' I:e Shar Pei, Staff, Pittbull Terrier, Bulldog, then it is good to wait until about 2 and a bit (about 2-3 months after turning 2)
