Microchipping
We use high quality nano needles that allow the microchips to be inserted with minimal distress to the dog.
All dogs will be microchipped and registered to the breeder who will be provided with the relevant information to transfer registration to the new owner.
Ultrasound
This is a non-invasive procedure. We carefully scan the girl and look not only for puppies but any issues that may arise.
From approximately day 30 of the dogs pregnancy, we can provide an estimated number of puppies, plus a due date. This gives you an idea of when to prepare for the puppies arrival.
Scans can also be life savers! Pyometria can be mistaken for pregnancy. An early scan can identify infection. Early diagnosis and prompt treatment is essential.
If we suspect infection we will always refer you to your vets. They will be able to diagnose and treat if necessary.
Numbers of puppies are always estimated based on what we can see at the time of the scan. As the pregnancy develops, some may become more visible and in some circumstances puppies can be reabsorbed by the bitch.
Cytology
By taking a swab of the bitch’s cervix, we can study the cells to determine the optimum time of ovulation. This helps to determine when the sperm is most likely to penetrate the egg.
Not only does this help to find the best time to mate, but we can also identify any infections that could cause problems for both the bitch and dog.
