My female dog isn't getting pregnant. What fertility options exist?

There are many things that could cause infertility. You would need to get her to a veterinary reproductive specialist to get a diagnosis; they will let you know if it can be corrected. ( https://vcahospitals.com/know-your-pet/infertility-in-female-dogs ) If she cannot conceive you should have her sterilized to prevent further problems like pyometra and mammary (breast) cancer.

There are a couple of reasons why Bambi isn't getting pregnant. The most common cause is bad timing, not mating at the optimal timing during her heat cycle. The best time to mate a female dog is from 9-14 days of her heat cycle. Other causes include a failure to ovulate, cycle normally, refusing to accept a mate, an inability to conceive, or an inability to maintain the pregnancy. First step is to have her seen by a vet to make sure everything is normal reproductively. I'd make an appointment to have her seen by a vet sometime soon to discuss her problem with getting pregnancy. Best of luck!

I would recommend not breeding her anymore and getting her spayed. It is possible that she is unable to get pregnant again. If you would like to know for sure I would take her to a veterinarian for bloodwork to check her hormone level. However with her getting older it might be time to retire her and stop trying to breed her.

If two pets aren't interested in mating, you can try pheromones such as the Adaptil diffuser. However, in most situations you will have to resort to artificial insemination through your specialized veterinarian if you want to get the female pregnant. Ask your vet if this is something they specialize in, or if they have a referral vet for you to seek help from. Best of luck with those two! Take care.

Hello, it is recommended that dogs are older than a year of age and have had at least one heat cycle before they are bred to have puppies. This to ensure the bitch has developed fully in growth and breeding capacity. I would recommend having a pre-breeding exam with your veterinarian to ensure she is a good candidate for breeding and to determine when the best time for her to be bred is. This will maximize her chances of becoming pregnant. After being bred, you should follow up with your veterinarian 3-4 weeks later to confirm pregnancy. Best of luck and hope this helps.

The only way to know for sure Zyra is pregnant is have her seen by a vet in another couple of weeks for x-rays and a blood test looking for the hormone relaxin to confirm that she is pregnant. It is possible that she may not get pregnant off five stud sessions if she wasn't mated at the right time in her heat, but hopefully she is pregnant. It's lovely you want to be a vet! The best advice I can give you is to study really hard and get lots of animal experience in a vet's office. It's not an easy road to become a vet, it's a lot of time and hard work, but if you apply yourself and work for it, it can happen :-)

Hi there. Thank you for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach. If Gracie does not want to accept the male there is not much you can do about that. You cannot force her. You can try leashing her so she doesn't try to walk away from him or lay down but I would be surprised if this helps. Sometimes it is just that particular male she does not like. If there are other Dogue breeders around maybe you should try another male. The only real suggestion I have at this point is to have the male's sperm collected and then inseminate Gracie via artificial insemination (AI). I don't know if your veterinarian is able to do this in Bangladesh so you will have to consult with them to see if this can be done. I wish I had some magic to tell you but unfortunately that is not possible. Hope this was somewhat helpful. Best wishes.
