Breeding purebred dogs should not be taken lightly. There are many things to consider to produce happy, healthy puppies with good temperaments. To be responsible in breeding purebreds, you should find out what hereditary diseases are common in your breed and have your dogs tested at the appropiate ages. How old are the dogs you are trying to breed? Many hereditary diseases are not detectable until the dogs are at least 2 years old. Is this the first time for both of them? When dogs breed, the become "tied", meaning that they are stuck together for 10 - 25 minutes. If this did not happen, then they did not "breed". Breedings should be supervised, especially with first time dogs, they can actually hurt eachother if not. Please do your homework on breeding. It sounds like this litter could be in trouble if you don't. There are so many problems that can occur in the whelping of puppies, the mother and puppies health and lives could be in jeopardy if not handled properly. Please visit the

That's not all! Next is being responsible for those puppies. Do you care where they go? DO you care who adopts them? Never sell your puppies to a pet store. The pet store is in it for money-you, as a breeder, should not be. If they are AKC, you must mark them for identifying purposes. As they start to grow up, they'll be a handful. You have to socialize them and teach them. You are the first trainer and the most important human in that huskies life. It is now up to you that these huskies get proper care and proper homes.
