[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]A friend’s family are Mennonite dog breeders. They have one female they breed at a time but she has a litter basically every year. The dogs do always seem well cared for, clean, live in their house with them, etc. But I don’t know how good it is to be bred that often. Or maybe that isn’t often for a purebred breeder?[/quote] It's good the dogs live with them, that's very important for early socialization. One litter every year is the maximum acceptable for a few years, but not more than 5 years. Ideally, a dam shouldn't be bred more than a 2-3 times in her life.[/quote]
