What does FB1 breeding in dogs mean?

It means that the particular liter is a second generation of that breed. For example, an FB1 miniature Goldendoodle (golden retriever/poodle) would mean that the breeder originally bred a poodle and a golden to get the first set of goldendoodle puppies. Then the breeder bred those goldendoodles with another toy poodle. So now the goldendoodles are bred BACK to poodle and they have now more poodle in them than golden.

Can a dog breeder spring a 'no breeding' contract on you for four months after buying a puppy even though you never signed one at the time of sale?

The agreement at the time of sale governs your legal relationship with the breeder unless you both agree to modify it later. The breeder could claim that you had orally agreed to the "no breeding" agreement at the time of sale, but it would be his or her burden to prove that in court.


What is Dog breeding rights can some one add an additional fee to have the breeding rights on a dog i may buy?

You should get the dog cheaper if the breeder wants to have breeding rights to use that particular dog later on. You don't have to agree to this, you may choose to get another puppy. But you should definitely _not_ pay extra for having a dog and the breeder has breeding rights, that would be crazy. Hope this helps. :)


How do you find out your dog's mother?

You check with your Breeder. This is why it is good to purchase your dog from an ethical breeder, not a backyard puppy breeder either. You can find out if she was OFA certified hips and elbows from the AKC papers but as far as personality, etc. you would check from your ethical breeder. An ethical breeder would only breed to improve the breed and her breeding stock would be of sound mind and body and checked for hip, elbow dysplasia, heart problems, eye problems, etc.

How much does a Horse Breeder make in a year?

The amount of money made (or in most cases lost) by a horse breeder varies widely on the skill, breed, bloodlines that the breeder works with. To give an average would be very deceptive as a lot of breeders do this as a hobby or second career as making a consistent income from breeding is very difficult.


How a horse breeder might use selective breeding to produce horses that have golden coats?

A horse breeder could selectively breed horses with golden coats by pairing individuals that already exhibit the desired trait. By selectively choosing parent horses with golden coats and breeding them together, the breeder increases the likelihood of offspring inheriting this trait. Through successive generations of selective breeding, the breeder can further refine and enhance the trait of golden coats in their horses.


Your dog had puppies before you switched her papers in your name can you still register her pups with the akc?

Whomever was the registered owner at the time of the breeding would be the one to register the litter. AKC would consider that person to be the breeder, and the legal owner of the litter.

Where you could find Goldendoodle puppies in California that is from a trusted Goldendoodle breeder and not some backyard first time breeder who has no idea what they are doing?

Hate to break it to you, but if they are breeding "goldendoodles" then they are either puppy millers or BYB's.NO good breeder would ever breed such a mutt. You might, however, find some good reputeable breeders for Poodles or Golden retrievers. Or you can go to the shelter and find a golden/poodle mix at a much cheaper cost (and probably even healthier) then you would at any "goldendoodle" breeders.

How are bull terriers?

If you are asking how much they cost that would really depend on which country you are living in, as well as whether you buy the dog from a recognised and registred breeder or from a backyard breeder or a puppy mill. The recognised breeder would be more expensive, but would definitely be the better choice.
