Hi, you can keep them together and let them mate occasionally but make sure the pups are from different parents and should not be related. The female should not be mated before 1.5 years of age, as it would be very stressful for her. Managing a male dog in the house with female in estrus can be difficult sometimes so you'll have to be prepared for that. Out of the two you can get the male neutered after a few matings, male surgery is less invasive as compared to spaying.

Dr. Anukarna Singh
Female should be operated only after 1-2 estrus cycles, this will reduce the likelihood of her having recessed vulva or developing incontinence.

Thank you very much, Dr Anukarna. Could you let us know any tips to manage the male puppy while the female is in estrus? I thought the female can be company for the male puppy as I work part-time in a wellness center. Is this advisable or is it better to keep only 1 dog at home?
