St. Bernard Dogs and the World of Love By directly visually observing the parent dogs and the St. Bernard puppies born from the previous litter, you can understand their advantages and disadvantages, which can be used as a reference for choosing puppies.

1. Selecting a male or female. Selecting a male or female depends on the owner's breeding purpose or personal preference to decide whether to choose a male or a female.

If you want to keep a dog as a guard or pet, in order to reduce the trouble of giving birth and attract male Saint Bernard dogs from other places during estrus, causing trouble to neighbors, it is best to choose a male Saint Bernard dog. If you want to use this little St. Bernard dog for breeding in the future, it is better to choose a female St. Bernard dog first. If you are raising a female dog, you can almost pay mating fees to the owners of outstanding breeding dogs from all over the country and apply for mating when the estrus period comes.

2. Conditions for excellent puppies. St. Bernard puppies get half of their genes from each parent. In addition to investigating the pedigree of its parents and grandparents to determine whether it is an excellent system, you can refer to the records of the grandparents and parent dogs participating in exhibitions, or see if there are any St. Bernard puppies born in the previous litter. Regardless of the results, you may wonder what kind of little Saint Bernard dogs this bloodline will produce. If this selected puppy is to be used as a breeding bitch in the future, it is necessary to further confirm whether this little St. Bernard is bred in a planned way from an excellent bloodline, or is a result of inbreeding. The ones that come out may not be in-breeding, or they may be out-breeding, so you need to be very careful about these.

Not only the physical structure of the puppies, but also the personality or behavior of the puppies will be subtly similar to the parent dogs or the St. Bernard puppies from the previous litter. As long as you carefully observe the various parts of the puppy's body, movements, and personality, you can gradually see whether the puppy resembles the father dog or the mother dog. Exploring and understanding how puppies inherit the strengths and weaknesses of their parents and grandparents is also very important when choosing a puppy. Based on these benchmarks, you can mentally picture the appearance and performance of this puppy in adulthood, which can be used as a reference to what level of Shiba Inu standards the puppy can achieve in the future. That being said, choosing a puppy can be difficult for those who are just starting out. In the beginning, it is best to discuss with seniors and experienced people to be safer.
