Yes you are correct sorry. I re-read the OP. I would suggest to the OP that you neuter your dog and enjoy him as a pet and hunting companion. To be Blunt there are more than enough great quality, registered, health certified males from great FTC/NFC bloodlines to make bother with trying to stand an unregistered male. Sorry but that is the long and short of it.

As Foxton has said, there really isn't any room for an unregistered dog in the stud world. Lighten him up and enjoy him, there is no money in standing a dog at stud,let alone an unregistered one, those of us who have awhole dog do so largely to fill our own needs as breeders.

And I believe I said that, I was responding to you request for a "girlfriend" not the fact that you HAVE an unregistered dog. There is nothing wrong with you having an unregistered dog, there ARElots of unregistered or cross bred dogs that are great family pets and hunting companions, just don't be trying to use it to breed with, do you even know about the genetic health history Hips, Eyes, PFK of your dog? These are all genetic health issues that crop up in Springers and by using dogs that are untested and of unknown pedigree there is a real chance of handing your puppy buyers bundle of heartbreak instead a bundle of joy. As I posted earlier, neuter your dog and enjoy him as a family pet and hunting partner, but if you are going to try breeding do so responsibly and use registered dogs from 100% field bred bloodlines that have been tested for genetic health issues.

Its your dog do with it as you please.

If you can find him a nice (willing) girlfriend let them have fun. We have a red heeler that's turning five this year, every now and then he spends a day or two with some other healers - (he normally sleeps for two days after each visit)

I have never asked for anything or expected anything in return, and Boom's has the biggest smile on his face for weeks.

R95, I do not know the genetic health issues with heelers, so I won't comment on that. I do know breed crosses in the cow dog world are common, I know lots of great cattle dogs who are mixes of the different breeds, when I was on the ranch mine was a 3(possibly 4)way cross. But I do know Springers, I have been breeding them since 1984, we know the genetic health issues and test for them and there by produce good pups that we guarantee. To breed a dog from a breed with known genetic health issues when you don't know the history of the linage or the issues your dog may have or be carrying(even though it appears healthy) is nothing less than irresponsible, sorry but that's a fact. Try consoling a kid who just had to have their dog put down at the age of 3 or 4 beause it's hips were so bad it couldn't even get up in the morning(even though both parents appeared healthy when they were bred) and you will understand my dedication to this issue.

What Jim and others have said.... I guess my question is why do you want to find a female to breed him to?

There are some very dedicated people that take the responsible breeding of pure bred dogs very seriously. Sometimes emotions take over. The comments from myself, Fire Power and Montana are serious and good information/questions from people who have been doing this for over 100 yrs between us. Not making excuses for anyone just giving an explanation. As I said before there is no reason to breed an unregistered, untested dog. Just have him fixed and enjoy him for the rest of his life. It will be better for the dog and you both.

While I agree the first part of Mr. Cook's statement may have been uncalled for, I believe the second part has some merit.
