Question:I have a Pug... if that helps answer this question at all.
Answers:
Gary made an excellent point. OK my father bred GSDs and i bred my OES my male is ready to go at stud.
As Gary pointed out to you, you need to establish a written contract with the other dog's owners. You're entitled to either a stud fee or pick of the litter. Stud fee has to be paid when your dog mates the *****. The ***** has to come to your dog as studs never travel. It is better for them to mate in their own environment, they don't feel tired/out of sorts because somewhere they don't know. You must make a point of writing this in the contract. Most owners will know this for a fact but should you come across someone who doesn't know, it is best to have it all written out and agreed first.
Indeed you may find the litter consists of one puppy only so should discuss this with owners so you both agree exactly what to do if this was to be the case (If you elect to have the puppy)
You should indeed read literature pertaining to breeding so that you can identify any first sign of your dog deciding that he's top stud and lead to difficulties afterwards, and please note that this may or may not happen! Better forewarned in case it did.
You must also face up to the fact that your dog might well get over excited first time, and find himself unable to mate. Should this be the case, you'd have to help him maually and have a clean tub with clean syringe that can be filled with your dog's semen to inseminate the *****. It isn't as bad as it sounds and you often find the beginner stud feel relax enough to then perform naturally. But this also needs to be discussed with the other owner. Then you need to agree on single or double mating. Double mating would ensure more puppies were born. It is quite a current practice nowadays but i would discourage anymore than 2 in a ***** reproductive years. The owner also need to agree on this one!
Finally has your dog been hip scored? Has the other been? This is another point you need to consider.
Breeds all commend different fees. For my dog it's £780.
You could contact the Pug's Club, tell them you intend to breed your dog and they'll be able to help you with details, tips and ideas regarding breeding/fees etc. They should also be able to put you in touch with one of their members who will be able to asnswer all your questions because he/she will have been there before.
Finally you should always ensure that the **** was partly related to your own stud dog. Not direct family (parents/brothers/sisters) But share a past relation (Two would be better) if you want to keep your dog's traits.
Good luck!

Pick of the litter or price of a pup
Usual arrangement is the dog behind the b*tch! Payment?
:-)
Sorry - can't help with serious answer
get the certificate
Actually depends on the pedigree. I had one dog with 12 champions on his papers. He got 5 times as much....Lucky dog!
My mom breeds cats and dogs,usually she wants piick of the litter or straight forward payment,the price of a pup/kitten.
The usual rate is a pick from the whelped litter, if your pedigree is good enough to strengthen the studs bloodlines, or approx £500 fee or higher, depending how famous the stud dog is.
Usual is price of one pup or pick of the litter.
If your dog has really great bloodlines and holds several titles you may be able to set a higher price.
Usally pick of the litter by stud dog owner and/or payment in cash. The arrangement should be in writing before the breeding. Details such as rebreeding if no puppies, and what happens if only one puppy is born. Try to get all details on paper. Both parties signing and getting a copy of the arrangement. This way there are not problems after the pup(s) are born.
I once knew of a breeding that took place with pick of the litter going to the stud dog owner. Dog only had one puppy and the girl had to pay for another breeding to get what she wanted in the first place which was a puppy from her dog. The second breeding produced a liter, her dog had three.
It depends on if you are breeding for pets or competitive dogs. It is very rare for a competitive dog's owner to ask for pick of the litter. Your ***** has to be really special. But if you are just breeding pets then it is more common. As for payment that runs the gamut. A really good dog's semen can go for thousands of dollars, most champions will go for several hundreds. When looking at stud ads you need to be aware of what your are reading. A dog advertised as "champion bloodlines" doesn't mean squat. You want to see what titles HE has won. Also a stud advertised as a "proven" champion doesn't mean he has produced champions, just that he has successfully produced a litter of puppies. Be aware of what you are shopping for.
It depends most on what the dog has done as far as their show achievements. A group placement means more than a BOB and a BIS means more than a group placement. If your dog has won BIS several times and at large shows or specialties then you are starting to get into the big game. If you are simply breeding for pets though, well, you shouldn't be breeding at all because the only proper reason to breed is for the betterment of the breed. We never breed a dog until it has its championship.
Search the net for "pug + stud" and "pug + stud fee". Get an idea of how much pugs with your dogs level of experience/show prizes/breeding can fetch.
Either charge the fee or take pick of the litter.
You may also offer "no litter, free return".
But beware, once you start using your dog for stud he'll never forget it. Experienced stud owners know how to deal with that, so that their dogs don't become a nuisance "off duty". So get some breeding manuals and look it up.
Your dog needs to be an outstanding specimen himself, not just a good pedigree. He also needs a perfect temperament since his pups will inherit that. He needs to be in perfect health. He must be vaccinated and wormed by your veterinarian, including the vaccine for kennel cough. And hee needs to be checked regularly for canine STD's.
Plus you need to know how o deal with the other owners, and what papers to insist on-all the same vaccines etc that your dog has.
"Pedigree" means NOTHING! It's merely a list of dog's ancestors. MUTTS can be "pedigreed" if some knows sire & dam,etc. & bothers to write in down!
"Registered" doesn't mean "breeding quality"...THOUSANDS of "PET quality" pups are registered. Only show/breeding quality stock should be bred. BY THOSE WHO KNOW WHAT THEY'RE DOING!
You DON'T breed pets on purpose! There are plenty of lovely animals,who have a VERY MINOR FAULT which bars them from show/breeding.
DO NOT BREED MORE CRAP!
stud fee is usually pick of the litter or price of a pup no matter what breed
