3 Months Between Seasons... Fertility Issues?

Hi Everyone ... i need some help

My 3 year old Newfy bitch started having normal seasons ie 6 months apart then 4 months and now 3 months (last 4 have been 3 months apart).... she I originally thought she was having split seasons but prog test at day 17 was under 2 and day 24 was 49.... so she is ovulating just much later than normal and then coming back in season 3 months from the start of her previous one.

we have tried natural mating and surgical AI with fresh semen... but have had no luck... Im almost ready to give up.... is there anyone else who has experienced this and has some success with getting their girl pregnant?

Oh and she has had full blood work done... nothing wrong there.

I would be seeking the advice a repo specialist. I have had bitches ovulate late in a season and it doesn't seem to be a drama however cycling every 3mths is not ideal.

Having had bitches with fertility issues ( of varying degrees) I sought advice from a few different vets, tried multiple things, often failed and went with my gut!!

However, one piece of info I was given was from the guru here in Qld Dr Phil Thomas, he advised me that it was difficult with some bitches who cycle more frequently than 6mths as often those cycling evey 4mths or under may in fact ovulate although they are generally not ovulating fertile eggs. Of course this is not always the case and plenty of bitches go 4 monthly and never have issues but he felt it was the case in those females that do show signs of problems.

Have you had her Thyroid levels checked?
