Not to rain on your parade, but, I do hope you realize that breeding any dog requires proving the potential breeding pair, typically in the show ring, testing for any and all genetic conditions common to the breed, and only then, getting ready for the heartbreak that can come with breeding. Pups die. Pups are stillborn. Bitches reject the litter, develope mastitious and can't feed them, sometimes bitches die. Then you have pups to place ONLY in responsible homes and you MUST be willing to take back those pups at ANY time in their lifetime in the initial placement doesn't work out for whatever reason.
There is a LOT involved in being a responsible breeder vs a backyard breeder, and heaven knows the world has enough of those!
