Requirements for selecting male dogs for breeding

1. Pure breed. Highly fertile and a purebred dog within three generations;
2. Moderate height. Male dogs do not need to be too tall to avoid difficulties during mating;
3. Good health. Don't be too fat or too thin, be energetic, have a tall physique, have broad forequarters, strong hindquarters, flexible movement, straight and strong limbs, bright and energetic eyes;
4. The reproductive organs must be well developed. Cryptorchidism, single testicles and swollen testicles do not meet the requirements. The scrotal skin is soft and delicate, close to the abdominal wall and not saggy.
5. The male is strong. When a female dog is in estrus and is close to a male dog, she likes to climb astride her, or she can actively climb astride him for mating without flirting with the female dog.

Precautions before breeding male dogs

Before breeding male dogs, you should ask the veterinary hospital to assist in checking the semen quality. If the sperm is too few, the motility is too low, and the survival time is too short, it will not be possible. It should be used for breeding to avoid causing the female dog to become pregnant. Those with genetic defects must not be used as breeding dogs to avoid passing them on to the next generation.
