Should I make my lead wolf the breeding male?

Here's my boy Arvarran. I still haven't decided on a breeding male for my pack, it seems like such a big commitment, considering you can only have one at a time and if you retire him early he will never be able to take the role again. I customized this guy's markings and I'm really happy with his looks myself, but I wonder if he's the right kind of material to produce desirable pups. I've also been thinking of studding and how that would work out.

I'm a newbie so I don't really know what I'm doing yet. I'd love to get some feedback if that's not too much to ask!

My lead wolf is my breeding male. I'd say go for it! Yours looks really handsome!

I think he is very pretty. My only recommendation is to change his base to a tier II. I have found all my tier II base pups sell quickly, but not my tier I. People want to breed to Tier II also. I love the marks and overall appearance of your boy, but I would change his base to make him more desirable for others to breed to.

Thank you, I'm glad to hear that!

Ah, I never even considered base tier rarities when designing him. That's a really solid advice, thank you! I didn't find a Tier II base that I instantly liked that I could use to replace Howlite, but I'll look into it more later.

I have my lead wolf as my breeding wolf and I gotta say it's going well so far! The base advice is solid also, that's what I did with my wolf and he's made some neat pups so far. Also I ADORE your boy, if you do make him your breeding wolf I may have to send one of my gals his way! 

He looks cool! I love black ticking.  A tier II base would definitely be more popular, but howlite looks very nice... With a tier 1 base and no rare markings or impressive stats I wouldn't expect him to be very popular as a stud, but he's pretty enough that I bet he'll get some interest - and make cute puppies, which is the important thing in the end! XD

That said, I've been trying to pick my own breeding male for weeks now, so I don't really know how the stud market goes from the stud-owning side.
