Answers:
It sounds like your dog is too young.. First 'heats' are often what we call 'flash heats' , and not really a full heat season.Breeding a dog on first heat can be done, but too often leads to heartache, as it is exactly as an 11-12 year old child having a baby, after her first 'period'.
.The mom isn't mature enough to mother the pups right, and it is so detrimental to her own health, the effects showing up as she ages, with poor bone and joint health, poor teeth, mammary tumors, etc..
A female is normally mature by 2 years old, so the first 'heat' after her second birthday is the safer time to breed.. The parent club for my breed, requires members to wait until 3 years old..and that sure works for me..It makes for better moms and healthier aging female dogs..
Wait at least until her cycles are regular and normal, for her own sake, and for the benefit of the puppies..AND the people who buy them.. go to the vet and ask them. i heard your suppose to wait for the last week of the heat cycle I fyou don't know enough about heat cycles to have to ask this question, you have no business breeding.
Why do it anyhow? Because she is a nice pet? Lots of nice pets out there looking for homes before they are killed at the shelter. ask a vet Yes! I own a dog conceved on day 5 but day 2?! I'd be worried you do not have a normal heat cycle and any chance of getting her in the family way - and that lead to the question if she should be breed.. If your dog is having irregular heat cycles do NOT breed her!!
I would recommend taking her to the vet for a complete exam (something that should be done BEFORE you even consider breeding.) In addition to a simple vet exam your dog needs to have and pass heath tests, have an impeccable pedigree and have either been shown or evaluated to ensure breed standard and breed worthiness.
