Timing the mating

Time The Mating Right

A female comes into heat about every six months. The cycle lasts around 21 days and the fertile window usually falls on days 10 to 14. Progesterone testing pins it down.

Days 1-9 - Early heat
Days 10-14 - Fertile
Days 15-21 - Ending
  • Progesterone testTest every 2 days. Mate about 2 days after it reaches 5 ng/mL.
  • Female travelsPlan 3 days at the stud's home for two attempts, 48 hrs apart.
  • Standing heatTail held to the side and she stands still: she's ready.

Stud fees & agreements

What Breeding Usually Costs

Stud fees aren't regulated. A common rule of thumb is the price of one puppy from the litter; breed, titles and proven litters move it. Owners agree terms directly and PetsFindly never takes a cut.

United States (USD)

  • Most breeds$500 - $1,500Registered studs with standard health tests.
  • Champion bloodlines$1,500 - $3,000Show titles, proven litters, full clearances.
  • Rare or imported$3,000+Limited lines, imported pedigrees, frozen semen.

Put The Stud Agreement In Writing

No lawyer needed, but it should cover these eight points, agreed before either dog travels.

Pick of litter? The stud owner chooses one puppy, usually at 8 weeks, instead of or on top of the cash fee.

  1. 01Both owners' names & contacts
  2. 02Both dogs' registered names & numbers

Breeding guide

Tests to ask the owner for

If a listing skips health tests, ask in chat. If the owner won't share certificates, walk away.

Labrador, Golden, Bernese, Rottweiler

Large breeds

  • Hip & elbow x-rays

    OFA or PennHIP scores. Look up any OFA dog by name, free.

  • Eye exam

    Certificate from a board-certified eye vet, dated in the last 12 months.

  • Brucellosis

    Both dogs tested clear within 30 days of mating.

Responsible breeding

Do This Before You Breed

  • Check vaccination and deworming records
  • Ask for hip, elbow and eye scores
  • Discuss temperament and past litters
  • Video call first, then meet somewhere neutral
  • Involve your vet before and during mating

PetsFindly connects owners; it doesn't replace veterinary advice.
