Wow.... after reading the "so you want to breed your female" and he's still set on breeding her??

What's her background, do you know all her history? I'd try to explain to him how it's a crap shoot if you don't know their history as far as genetics go, and that if you do breed her, you will insist on having all the pups spayed/neutered before they are placed in homes, then call your vet to get a price on what it will cost to have... say 8 puppies... spayed/neutered before they go to new homes, and tell him that if he does breed her, that's the agreement, that way, you know the pups will not be having pups. Then I would want him to have at least 8 homes lined up to take the pups, and ask him if he 100% agrees to take the pups back if for any reason, they don't work out in their new homes. Is he willing to raise and keep the pups that can't be placed, or have to be returned?? Try to do a breakdown of the cost, including spaying/neutering the pups, of what it will cost per year, for their upkeep, food, shots and everything that goes with having a dog.. times 8. And just to add food for thought, let him know that the litter could be as high as 10-12 pups, instead of 8 or less, that you guys will be responsible for. Hopefully, that will get him to thinking and change his mind.
