Akc German Shepherd Champions

Breeding GSD’s(20 char…gr)?
I have a female White German Shepherd…She’s 2 12 years old. She’s a beautiful dog, with a wonderful temperament.
I had her screened and she has no health problems that could be passed to the pups.
. She’s AKC but no champion bloodlines and she hasn’t been in any shows.
I recently adopted a male GSD….he’s about 4, he’s GORGEOUS(white) and he’s AKC but, again, no special bloodlines or any showing. I’m considering having him screened.
They both have great temperaments. Should I consider breeding them or should I have them desexed??? They would be sold as pets, and desexed. Not for breeding or showing.
No lectures on dogs in shelters please. I am aware that there are plenty of mutts who need love in shelters. I am also aware that there are plenty of poeple who want a well bred AKC dog and don’t want to pay thousands of dollars.
I plead with you not to breed your dogs. First a white coat on a German Shepherd is considered a fault, something you do not want to breed into other dogs. I understand you may very well find very good homes for the puppies. You do sound like you do care very much, but what do you think the reason is for people mentioning shelters?
There are more dogs being bred on purpose than there are people willing to buy them, let alone all the dogs in shelters. It’s really not fair to the dogs in the shelters, which may I say 1 in 4 is a purebred, that good homes for them will be taken away because someone “just had” to breed their dogs.
Again, I plead with you, there are thousands of dogs put down every year because nobody wanted to take them in.
There is nothing wrong with breeding dogs, however dogs should not be bred just because they will make good pets, there are already thousands upon thousands of dogs that are pet quality in shelters.

Its 130 am vets closed until 8 am
What you saw was her releasing her mucus plug. It should be a thicker discharge of a clear to milky coloring. It can be seen for up to a week before actual labor begins sometimes only a few days!
Her body is getting ready for whelping but it doesn’t necessarily mean she will go into labor in the next few hours at all.
You will have to watch her for other signs too. It would be wise for you to start to take her temp. 2 times a day and when it drops to below 100 degrees then you should see pups with in 12 to 24 hours.
Just make sure she is not left alone and that you take her out on lead to potty from this point on.
Having a 60 day gestation is not unheard of at all. Anything before 60 days then I would worry about under developed pups.
Good luck!
