Good reason to breed.  But since she is not two have you done prelims on 
her hips, elbows and shoulders yet?

Good to hear this type of attitude.  Remember, no matter how much 
research people do when considering buying one of your pups...use a 
contract!  They will save your butt and possible the life of a pup later 
on.

When I have bred a dog there has been no boarding fee.  The bitch is 
brought to the dog after she begins her heat, (usually after the 7the 
day) and stays there until the breedings are done.  The average cost for 
a stud fee is usually the price of one puppy.  So if the pyr pups for 
that particualr dog are going for 800 then your stud fee will bea baout 
800.
It is not uncommon for the stud dog owner to aske for a deposit after 
the breeding.  If the breeding takes, then you pay the rest when the 
litter papers are filed.
Note: This is only one method.  Everyone has their own "ways" when it 
comes to using their stud dogs. Some even require a contract to be 
signed that all pet pups will be placed spayed/neutered or on limited 
reg.
