Should chilled or frozen semen be used, best to use a veterinarian specialized in transporting and inseminating. Frozen semen has opened up the possibility for dogs deceased for two decades or so to father new litters. It is now also possible to transport semen around the world. It is quite amazing how far pedigree dog breeding has progressed in the 21st Century! Stud Fees The female dog’s heat cycle lasts for about 21 days, and she is typically fertile (in estrus) for 3-5 days in. It’s best to have the dogs mate every other day during this time to ensure the best chance of success. When it comes to confirming a successful mating in dogs, veterinary confirmation is the most reliable method. There are several ways veterinarians can confirm whether a dog has successfully mated, including ultrasound scans, X-rays, and hormone tests. Ultrasound Scan Scott, Mary A (2000).

The abdomen will gradually expand throughout the pregnancy. It will become more evident as the puppies continue to grow inside the uterus. Uterine infections should be treated expeditiously if suspected. Contrary to common belief, uterine infections can strike any intact female, whether she has been bred or not, and whether it is her first season or not although it is more common as dogs become older. Heidenberger E, Unshelm J (1990). "[Changes in the behavior of dogs after castration]". Tierärztliche Praxis (in German). 18 (1): 69–75. PMID 2326799.Diestrus is the period following mating. Diestrus lasts approximately 56 to 60 days in a pregnant female, and 60 to 100 days in a non-pregnant female. During both of these periods, progesterone levels are high. Because the hormonal profile of a pregnant female and a female in diestrus are the same, sometimes a non-pregnant female will go through a period of pseudo-pregnancy. At that time she may gain weight, have mammary gland development, produce milk, and exhibit nesting behaviours. a b c d Borge, K. S.; Tønnessen, R.; Nødtvedt, A.; Indrebø, A. (March 2011).

11 Ways To Know If Dog Mating Is Successful (Updated 2023)
Note: Vets say this is the most telltale sign of a successful mating encounter. However, even dogs that don’t end up being tied can produce a litter. As long as they show other signs that I’ll explain further in this article. #2: They’re cleaning each other

Prostatic Disease: The prostate gland plays a significant role in male canine reproduction. Diseases of the prostate such as prostatitis (inflammation of the prostate), benign prostatic hyperplasia, and prostate cancer can severely impact a male dog’s fertility. These conditions can lead to painful ejaculation, blood in the semen, or even complete obstruction of the ejaculatory ducts.
