Telly24555 answered Saturday August 18 2007, 7:52 pm: Uh, I suggest if you are going to breed or know someone about to breed, Look up more information. It is very unsafe breeding and not knowing anything, You could lose the puppies and the mother.
Also Im sure you dont want to breed mixes, Unless you have for sure homes, You would hate to see some puppies in the pound. but being small dogs that shouldnt be a problem.
Agian you dont want to be named a back-yard breeder were they know nothing of the breed or dog, If they have a bad temperment, Dont breed em. Also go to a local vet and make sure that both male and female dog have good hips, health ect.
Andd maybe to get good lines, Get a show dog OR put them in agility or any other sport. [ Telly24555's advice column | Ask Telly24555 A Question ]

Adolescence for most domestic dogs is around 12 to 15 months, beyond which they are for the most part more adult than puppy. As with other domesticated species, domestication has selectively bred for higher libido and earlier and more frequent breeding cycles in dogs, than in their wild ancestors.
hope this helps.
