breeding question

[bdub]

how long does it take for a bitch to have pups after she impregnated?

[texasboy]

around 63 days from the time the sperm takes give or take a day or two depending on the dog.

[GameKid16]

can you breed a bitch if she's not in heat?
that a NO!!! and I belive u have to wait a few days after she goes in heat to breed them though, dont breed her man trust me, it takes more money to maintain them than u make

[bdub]

im not planning on breeding for a long while, like i posted earlier,i have 2 males and im planning on getting a female--previosly spayed by her other owners,so 3 is all ill be able to afford for a few years

bdub, try researching alittle about breeding and raising pups on the internet. There's alot to learn and you have plenty of time to learn. Also there's some books that are great about pitbulls, try a pet supermarket if you can't buy em online. Once you learn all you can and if you have pups in the future, you'll save alot of money by buying some of your own supplies to raise the pups. For example, you'll need deworming medicine, and you can buy the same stuff the vet uses online for 10 times cheaper. Also vaccinations can be bought very cheap, and you can have someone that knows what they are doing administer the shots. Make sure you don't breed the female to early like alot of people do, wait till she's done growing, say on the 3rd or 4th heat. If you buy a young female pup now you'll have alot of time to learn and prepare until then.

Man I really really hope you're not going to try to breed your dog to this spayed female. And no you can't force them either. The reason why I say this is because, I've known someone who was stupid enough to try this.(as if it was going to magically happen) The damn dog was fixed and he still tried to force the other dog on it. LOL funny huh(not really) but that just goes to show you how stupid some people are.

[SWAMPER]

Yep Id Say You Need 5 More Yrs In With The Dogs B4 You Even Think Of Breeding You Need Alot More Info But No A Spayed Gyp Will Not Take And Have Pups Lmao!

[D.R KING]

[texasboy]

Bdub...crossposted some information you might have overlooked. As stated previously, research IS key prior to deciding IF & when you should breed. Tons of information available, just take your time. As recommended, EF's book is an excellent source of hands-on information, not just specific to breeding.
