Reproductive Services

A brief outline of our reproductive services is as follows:

For Males:

Breeding soundness evaluation (this includes semen collection and semen evaluation for motility, concentration and morphology)
Semen collection for shipment (cooled-semen)
Semen longevity testing (testing prior to shipping cooled semen)
Import of frozen and chilled canine semen
Prostate disease evaluation and treatment
Brucella canis testing

For Females:

Breeding soundness evaluation
Breeding management (this includes ovulation timing, fresh semen insemination, cooled semen insemination, frozen semen insemination, and surgical insemination)
Pregnancy diagnosis - an ultrasound is performed at 25 - 28 days following breeding. Ultrasound is a safe and very accurate way to diagnose pregnancy and evaluate the health of the pregnancy. Radiographs are also taken the week before the female is due to accurately determine fetal numbers
High-risk pregnancy management - evaluation and monitoring of females that have lost previous pregnancies
Scheduled and emergency C-sections
Medical management of uterine disorders such as pyometra and metritis
Elective, medical pregnancy termination
