I have been searching for a breeder for my dog, and we have finally contacted one through email. We have only exchanged a few emails, but I want my dog to be in good condition if we ever do breed him. So what are breeders looking for in Stud Dogs and there owners?
Of coures they look for breed standards and a professional stud owner but what else?

Show titles
Health/Genetic testing
Sound temperment.
Health records, championship titles, etc.
If you want to stud your dog you need a dog that’s stud dog material ie. one who has a few or all of the following: OFA Hip X-ray certifications that are in the “Good” or better range, show titles, working titles, obedience titles and so forth. As far as a stud dog’s owner they expect somebody who’s knowledgeable about the breed. Businesslike, and not somebody with a dog who thinks because they like their dog that their dog would make a great stud…in other words? It’s unlikely your dog is stud quality, it’s probably little more than a good pet. If it is stud quality and you know this through your multiple best of breed and best in shows and your various working titles then by all means, stud away.
