Dog Breeding

PUREBREEDS FOR FUTURE GENERATIONS:

Most people know the difference between a mutt and a purebred dog.  Purebred dogs are produced from parents were also purebred.  In order to make sure you are getting a true purebred, check to see that registration papers are available.  These papers are proof that both parents were purebred, which means your dog is a purebred puppy. 

A purebred dog is one that has been specifically bred by humans to serve a particular function, whether for work or companionship.  Breeders choose a particular breed with desirable features, get a male and a female and breed them, with purebred puppies being the result.  Other dog lovers can then buy these purebred puppies, for a price.  Most purebred puppies or dogs are quite expensive. 

Many purebred dogs have a specific purpose, which usually dates back in time quite a ways.  Saint Bernard’s were used for saving lost mountaineers, the Mastiff for defending the Roman Empire, the Chesapeake Bay retriever for retrieving ducks, and the Newfoundland for rescuing sailors.  There are also a number of dogs who are used for hunting and guarding. 

If you are looking for a dog for a specific purpose such as a guard dog, you have many different breeds to choose from.  Some breeds are better at guarding than others of course.  If you have children, and love to go hunting you will probably want a dog that is good with children, but can also go hunting with you.
