Responsible breeding
Safe breeding checklist
Before you book a mating, check these four things. If either dog is unsuitable, the right decision is not to breed.
Readiness first
Ask your vet about age, maturity and breeding suitability. One age does not suit every dog.
Checks first
Review both dogs’ health and breed-specific screening with your vet. View health testing guide
Agree upfront
Put fees, expectations and what happens if mating is unsuccessful in writing.
Safe location
Discuss a calm, suitable setting and each dog’s welfare before arranging a meeting.
