Oga don't bother, just look for a similar dog to ur female's breed. It messes up everything responsible breeding stands for

Hello there, by doing so, you'll only end up ruining the pedigree of both breeds. I understand you want pups and dogs of a more respected breed but there are better ways around it. It will only take time but believe me, by this time next year, you'll thank me for it...

A dog comes on heat on the average of 3 times a year, 2 times in some, depending on the fertility of your bitch.

All you need do is mate ur mongrel with a mongrel of equal class. I reckon mongrel pups are sold for 2k or thereabout. If your bitch litters like 2 or 3 different times, you can gather up the cash and get yourself a good breed...That way, no one will criticize your pet and you won't come back here with a mastweiller or corsoweiller. You will be known for breeding nothing but the best.

Always understand that nothing good comes easy, and people tend to appreciate anything good...So bro, work on this...

And also note that if you have good pups, people will stop at nothing to tap into ur genepool...#MY CENT#

Don't waste your time bro,its not worth the effort.
I can give you a female GSD puppy for a token, when she comes of age then mate her with a good male GSD and you'll have cause to smile.

Nice write-up bro... But I'll like to spot some errors u made. Yea true, several breeds were the results of repeated mixed-breeding programs, but u shld note that at no point in time were their pup's sold out till the desired traits were met.

How do I explain this? OK, a breeder wanna experiment on cross breeding a rottie and a basenji for example, it's cool... but this requires repeated mating of the offsprings to ensure a standard breed is met. All these takes time. The boerboel wasn't just a product of mating one breed and another, it was a result of repeated mating of the product back into the gene pool. At no point in time were the pups sold out to the general public because it's protected and restricted within the program, please check ur facts.

I frown on cross breeding because it was and still remains the greatest undoing on the canine world. Just like the guy who advertised his mastweillers on the other thread, ask him to snap and post the pictures of the parents. Sure you'll be expecting to see a pure bred rottweiler and a mastiff, but no, all he'll post is an impure rottie with another ekuke breed. He only decide to find a suitable breed to call his pups just to get them sold on time.

An unsuspecting and innocent starter will buy such pup thinking he bought the best. As time goes on, he'll realise he only entered one chance. As a business conscious individual, This person also mates this breed with prolly a boerboel or another related breed and sells to the public. Another person buys and the trend goes on. Now look at it this way, these pups now have several behavioural traits inherited from their progeny. That's when u hear news of a lhasa who tears off a kid's skull. Now u wonder, are lhasas made to be aggressive? not knowing they're the products of people like codeinejunkie and Co...

I've given my piece, let's frown on roadside breeders who wanna make a fortune overnight.

register kini?lol the dogs in Nigeria or ill say Lagos are not qualified to be called anything asides mutts. you might get basenji in the internal villages and even salukis and dogs similar to the rajapalayam. but no one will register a mutt. if you do a genetic testing on the street dogs you'll be surprised that some even have gsd and other breeds far back in their lineage.

Iv had more than enough experience with local dogs to point out the fact that local dogs are underated ... You have 1 female n dat might be boring, if your reason for crossing is for the love of dogs then breed her with an equal breed, dont crossbreed, sell or give out some pups n keep some just to raise a pack, then you'll get my point. Besides crossing dosnt pay like that, people put a 10k price on it but still end up selling for 6-5k... These days i see localdog/gsd mix roming the streets, our pure breed local dog is going extinct, I'd love to have one or two females just to preserve d breed.... NB... Basenji isn't the breed name, basenji is quite bigger than local dog and thery are barkless.. Our localdogs can bark for africa... Till today nobody don sabi the breed name... Last last na ekuke we go call am....
