This is basically a mating service given by champion bloodline dog owners to other owners of the same dog breed, though some breed mainly for procreation rather than getting prospective champions. It is logical therefore to assume that the better the bloodline, in terms of champions, the higher the asking price will be.

Upwards to 3500 dollars or more can be charged by owners of champion dogs and bullies, another term for bulldogs. Fourth generation bloodlines are usually the average gauge by which you can say that the male will sire champions also. Thus if the male is fourth generation or more, be prepared to pay more. The result of paying more could be you having a lot of puppies with champion potential, which in turn you can also sell at a profit.

Before any mating can take place or even prospective contract signing for breeding be taken into account, your bitch has to be tested for brucellosis. This is a canine venereal disease that is very much a concern for all if not most breeders, as it will affect the overall health of not only the stud, but the litter as well. Only when your bitch has passed this requirement can she be considered as an approved mate before the process can begin.

Once both male and female dogs are cleared of brucellosis and other similar conditions, contract terms are discussed. The mating procedure is covered by a contract wherein both parties have most of their concerns covered and listed. The contract conditions are fairly much the same whether there is actual physical mating or artificial insemination is involved.

The contract guarantees the owner of the female, or the one hiring the stud, that the owner of the stud guarantees a certain number of generations pedigree, whether it be the standard fourth generation or more. It will provide provisions for adequate care of the bitch under their care and also possibilities of return service within a certain number of days, which is usually around sixty to seventy days if conception does not occur.

As for the owner of the female, they are usually not made to give one pup out of the litter unless otherwise stated in the contract. They are also encouraged to keep the dog in heat in secluded areas where no other dogs can get to them so as to ensure purity of the mating procedure, for the duration of the contract.

These are some important things you should know about when hiring a bulldog stud service. More items will definitely need to be covered and this can be done with more research either by internet or your dealings with other breeders for their recommendations.
