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.
- 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.
Plan The Litter
Pick the first day of heat to see the fertile window and a due date.
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.
- 01Both owners' names & contacts
- 02Both dogs' registered names & numbers
- 03Stud fee: cash, pick of litter or both
- 04When the fee is paid
- 05No-pregnancy clause (free repeat on next heat)
- 06Single-puppy clause
- 07Health tests confirmed as current
- 08Brucellosis clear within 30 days
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.

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.

- 05No video callTen minutes on video shows movement, home and temperament.
- 06Nothing in writingNo written stud agreement means no breeding. Walk away.
