    I have a 6yr old springer that I may be looking to sire in the future as he is a cracking dog. He will be 6 soon and has sired a few litters but my mate reckons that once he hits 7 he will be too old to get IKC pups. I thought it was 10 years of age for the male and 8 for the bitch. I have looked on the IKC website but can't find out the info.
    Anybody know for sure what age dogs can be bred up till and still get papers?
    Regards

    7 is not to old to reg ikc pups out of him.I had pups reg out of a 10 year old stud dog.If a dog was a FTW/FTCH he could be used out past ten if in good health and it was deemed of value to his breed.

    I have found that litters do tend to be smaller out of an older stud dog 8/9+

    Bitches are from 18 months to six years and dogs are from 9 months to 9 years. Hope this helps
