What this sheet is for
Keep one dog's whole breeding life on one record, from its first season to its retirement. Ages at mating, litters and caesareans are then there to check, not pieced together from memory.
Who it is for
Dog breeders, from a family with one bitch to a licensed kennel keeping a record for each breeding dog.
How to use it
- Fill in the identity block once, copying the registration and microchip numbers from the papers.
- Add a line for every mating, including those that did not produce a litter, with this dog's age at the time.
- On the back, note each season's start date for a bitch, and whether she was mated.
- Add each litter and any vet treatment linked to breeding as they happen, and the retirement date at the top when it comes.
- Keep the litter reference matching your litter records so the two can be followed across.

Printed under the title: One record for one breeding dog, kept for its whole breeding life: who it is, every mating whether or not it took, every season and litter, and the vet treatment that went with them, through to retirement.
Your vet and your rules, not ours. No ages, intervals or litter limits are printed. How old a dog should be to breed, how often, and how many litters, are for your vet, your kennel club and the rules where you are. Write each age and date as it happened, so the record can be checked against them.

Questions
Why does the sheet not say how many litters or at what age?
Because those limits are set by your vet's advice, your kennel club's rules and the law where you live, and they are not the same everywhere. A printed figure could be wrong for you. The sheet records the actual ages and dates so they can be checked against whatever applies.
Can I use it for a stud dog?
Yes. Skip the seasons table, record each mating with the bitch and her owner, and use the litters table for litters he sired, with the dam in the partner column.
How is this different from the puppy litter and buyer record?
That sheet follows one litter from whelping to the day each puppy leaves. This one follows one parent dog across all its litters, so the history of the dog itself is in one place.
