Gallien...it's by Rutherford and Neil...now in it's 3rd or 4th edition. I wore mine out as a breeder. They've got good used ones on Amazon.com. I am very serious when I say it's a must have for the sake of the pups. I didn't get it until 1981 ( after I had already been a breeder for many years ) and learned a TON!!
You might already have the knowledge of what the book touts. Like, when they should go to their new homes; how you should socialize them before they go to their new homes; what the new owners should do when they get their pup home, etc. Bubbatd would give a copy of the book with every new pup owner...
Good for you !!!! Let me know what you think of it .....what really got me when I first got it ,was a weekly thingy that said " if you don't do thus and thus during this week you are a bad breeder !!!" Boy, did I hone in on that and learned.!!! It's small $$$$ well spent ! A hug from Grammy for wanting to learn.

well, atleast at this point in my life I have no intention of breeding dogs, that could change I suppose at any time though. but for now, if I learn even 1 thing about breeding that will help me pick a breeder in the future (sure rory wont be my last puppy). I imagine though, I will learn a lot of things I didnt know and quite a few new ways to do things I already know how to do. no matter what I am sure I will enjoy it a lot. will deffinetly let you know, and will probably have a few questions to ask you guys as I read.
