I would not. i think that they are still too immature in their minds at that 
age to be mothers.  i have a nineteen month old bitch in standing heat right 
now and am having a wonderful time ( yeah right ) trying to keep my boy Mick 
away from her.  last night he was standing on top of an airline crate that she 
was in and trying to figure out how to get in.  Today when I left for work they 
were in two separate rooms at the opposite end of the house behind two closed 
doors.  I could hear Mick complaining as I drove out of the driveway. I am sure 
that my neighbor was thrilled.  I do not breed them before two and have had at 
least two previous seasons. Also they are old enough to x-ray for OFA.
