You want to breed him responsibly and those who are responsible/reputable breeders show their females and it's among show dogs that they look for the sires for their litters.

Even if you don't show him, consider going to a few shows and get an idea of what it takes to make a champion. Learn to look at your dog critically. Some dogs just don't show well (Will's breeder told me this and so did another well known breeder) but before you breed a dog have a plan in mind of what outcome you want.
Another consideration is do you have full registration or limited registration on your dog. With limited you would not be able to register any litter produced.
