I am looking for a sire for my 75-pound, mixed-breed dog. Please read.
Hi, I am looking for a sire for my 75-pound, mixed-breed dog.
Ginger is two-years old and has proven to be an excellent and unique dog. I am constantly getting the comments, “What a good dog,” and “What a beautiful dog.” In fact, several friends and family have asked me for her pups and an excess of other people are also waiting in line.
I would like to preserve her physical attributes in her offspring. So, ideally, I am looking for a sire of roughly similar color, weight and physical appearance.
Ginger's Stats:
75 lbs; lean, muscular
24” tall
Very affectionate and loyal to family, and very social while still cautious of strangers
Excellent and loving with children
Vigilant watch dog but barks only when there is good reason to bark
Very intelligent, learns easily
Friendly with other dogs and our cat, pigs and even zebras!
Is able to think independently but always obedient
Incredibly healthy and raised on organic food
Ginger is probably best described as an unknown mix. But the best guess is that her mother is a German Shepherd Dog/Pit Bull mix and the father is Akita.
I'm not making this request as a money making proposition, as I do not make my living breeding dogs. And I have not taken this decision lightly or haphazardly. I should say that I spent months searching over two-thousand litters to find the perfect dog and I would like keep Ginger's line going.
Please let me know if you have a male that fits the bill, or also, let me know if you have any ideas as I am open to considering a handsome sire of any breed or mixed-breed regardless of size.

I'm sure you know this, since you've done so much research...but breeding two mixed breed dogs, even if they look identical, will result in a variety of puppies. Are you prepared to find homes for those that don't appear to be clones of your dog?
Not to mention, you have no guarantees re: temperment, barking, health. You really don't even have those with purebed dogs.
