Quincy

He is very cute! How old is he?

eek! The dad shocked me a bit...he looks like a she... I am not particularly fond of the maltese...probably because they look too fancy and spoiled...but i think your puppy is cute! He looks like a normal dog...hehe!

LOL, I'm not very fond of them with long hair, either. We'll keep him with a "puppy cut."

To IRescue: Again, we're not getting him directly from the breeder, but the lady we bought him from did go to their house to pick them up. Maybe they just talk to people through emails and get their attention by pictures?

He's 5 months.



My mom is planning (if everything is ok) on breeding Isis and Quincy. She's been looking into it for the past few years, and has been waiting for Isis to get older. She never planned on buying a male, she was going to send Isis to a stud, but decided she did NOT want Isis to leave her for two weeks. I think it would be an awesome experience. Isis and Quincy are both purebred and Quincy's father is a champion, and both from good breeders... ect. I still feel guilty somehow, though. Just seeing all the dogs in shelters!

I wanted to ask you guys where the line would be drawn between responsible breeding and irresponsible breeding?

Well responsible breeding is if you have both parent's registered, test the puppies for things, get them shots, blahblah.

I don't know everything you gotta do so if anyone else knows, don't listen to me. lol

Thanks for your input, guys! Of course we would get the Vet's ok for the parents health wise, and the puppies tested/shots ect. Three of our friend's definately would want a puppy if we had them. My mom only works on the side as a hairdresser at home, and these dogs are her passion. She would really go all the way with this.

But the problem is showing. It's not particularly something she's interested in, and like you said, it's important to want to breed to better the breed.

I was actually looking into showing Quincy myself, but that is something I know nothing about!
