Both dogs must also be tested for brucellosis ...
Breeding can also be vry time consuming so make sure that you have lots of extra time to spend caring for both mother and puppies
Veteran breeders of quality dogs state that they spend well over 130 hours of labor in raising an average litter.
This is over two hours per day, every day!
The bitch should not be left alone while whelping and only for short periods for the first few days after.
Be prepared to take time off from work if needed for complications may arise.
If the bitch and dogs are not famaliar with each other it may be a good idea to introduce them a few days before.
Gestation period is usually around 62 days though it can be a few days longer or shorter.
If gestation last more than 65 days it may be a good idea to consult your vet .
If the proper procedures are followed, breeding could be fun, interesting and worthwhile.
We recommend Nupro Dog Suppliment for a healthier dog during and after gestation, this is an absolutely awesome product..
