I have a bitch coming in very soon.  I have already spoken with the owner of the stud dog and he has given us the option of shipping fresh chilled semen vs us driving 60 hours over two weekends to get her bread.  I would not consider if it were for a surgical implantation but am considering because of better techniques and success rates near 90%.  Does anyone have an experience or advice to share?

paws up y'all,

Dana

I don't have much experience with this, but have had a little bit with frozen semen and surgical implant.

I think that the main thing is to use someone who knows what they are doing. The female's progesterone number needs to be right, then the semen shipped correctly, then the semen examined for quality, then an A-I properly done. You need to go to the best person/people available IMO.

Would you like to Sonic Size your order today?
