I have been asked if my dog will mate with another Samoyed and I have been told that if I use him as a stud it would change his behavior. I love him just the way he is and I don't want him to change. He has the best temperament and is so gentle and loving and I'm his absolute favorite person in the world. I'd be devastated if it made him nasty or anything like that. But I would love it if he could have a girlfriend 
My dog has an excellent breed line, over 80% champions and his relatives have mostly been from imported lines. He hasn't been hip scored yet - and as he'd be put under anestetic I'm reluctant to have it done.
If the girls breed line isn't as good as his should I avoid mating them? In my mind, it would be a good thing to do - to improve her line. And of course I'd make sure there were suitable homes for all the pups first.
I'd never get my dog neutered even if I'd decided never to breed from him! I didn't know that this would be bad for his coat though!
I didn't get him to breed from him or to take him to crufts or anything like that - he was just to be a family pet and a best friend and that's what he is. I'd hate it if he changed!
