I have also raised, shown, trained, and groomed my own Standard Poodles for over 20 years.
Question I have a poodle (buster) who is 14months old. If i wanted to him to mate w/ female (i guess make him the stud) where would i find information about that?
Answer Hello Alex,
The best way for you to advertise your boy for Stud is to put an ad in the paper to let people know about him.
You should also have your information about him ready for when people call. They will want to know how old he is, has he ever been used for breeding before, what color he is, and some info about his background (ie his parents/grandparents color, pedigree, papers, etc).
You can also call breeders in your area to see if they have any interest in your male.
I hope this helps you some. If you have other questions for me, please feel free to ask.
