  1. One word really .......................... WOW
  2. I will be going to the fertility vet next week and I will ask her Fifi.Interesting as well I was talking to a breeder and she tells me they cannot get a girl pregnant. Her levels were off the scale at 5 days into her cycle and dogs will not go near her.
  3. Talk to me again later next week Ellz. Ultrasounding mid week. Not saying anymore as I do not want to jinx myself. Do they want short or long coat as I may have a long coat male left. Puppy buyers, great home but they ordered a short coat and are not sure about taking a long coat
  4. Our vet said that at 52 on the prog test she would be close to losing the litter. We did a prog check because she absorbed her previous litter, and both the previous litter and the next one she stopped eating, so we decided to check the prog level first to see where we were at. After establishing that she was pregnant, and at a healthy prog level, we proceeded along as per normal, doing our best to keep her eating. She had a normal litter. If she had had a lower prog level which gave us concern, or left us supplementing her progesterone, them i'm sure regular prog tests would have occured. We only had one progesterone test done at 4 weeks the day we had the pregnancy confirmed. Results back in 2 hours and the first lot of progesterone given that afternoon and then every week after that. No more progestone tests just the weekly dose
  5. We have just been through this and we were lucky we had a fantastic reproduction specialist to help us out. You learn a lot as breeder, some times its just hard but to then find someone who understands is such a relief.We have a girl here who was mated just over 18 months ago. Confirmed in whelp, huge litter and a week later nothing. Mated again on her next season confirmed in whelp and a week later nothing. Both times went off her food and a massive case of the runs. We happened to be talking to a greyhound breeder and he told us about a specialist reproduction vet here. Had heard about her but had not heard of any who had managed to get a litter. After talking to some more greyhound breeders we decided to contact her and now so pleased we did. She did a full history and we went from there with a surgical AI. Confirmed pregnancy at 4 weeks and a progesterone test to see what her levels were as this vet was sure that her levels fell away resulting in the loss of the previous litters. Her levels after that test were 52 about half of what it should have been. She had a progesterone injection that day and then weekly with reduced doses towards the end of the pregnancy. We now have a wonderful litter that are 5 weeks old and thriving. Hope this is what you were after
