Have you seen any reasons to be worried? That is a pretty broad question.

Sorry to be vague--what I meant was is there any reason to be concerned about buying a puppy from a mother's very first litter? Wondering if a puppy from a mother who has already had at least 1 litter might be a better idea since you know if those previous puppies were healthy, etc.

It has a lot to do with the family that the female is from too. If she herself is healthy, she comes from a healthy family as does the male she is bred to AND they are the types of dogs you want, then take a chance. Even with females that have produced before genetics/nature isn't always predictable.

Every breeding female...has a 1st litter.....if she is a good mother, has good genetics & is healthy.... it doesn't matter if it's her 1st or her last litter.
