In rare cases we may be able to accept pick of the litter as payment but this is not standard practice and would depend on a number of factors. a contract would need to be drawn up in advance.

What if my girl doesn't get pregnant?

In the unlikely event that your bitch does not become pregnant; as a gesture of good will we can offer ONE free return visit on her next season. It MUST be the same bitch that is brought back on her next season for her free return visit to the same dog.  Please note this is a gesture of good will not an entitlement.  We will do everything we can to accommoa

To avoid disappointment you will need to give us a call as soon as the bitch comes back into season so that we can reserve the appropriate stud dog for you. In the rare event that the stud dog you used originally is already booked up, we may be able to offer an alternative Sire, or the free mating may be carried over to another season

.

I have never had a litter before can you offer advice?

We have experience in breeding and can offer our advice on all aspects, from the mating through to advertising your litter and everything in between.

What colours will I get?

We can't guarantee what colours your girl will produce. We can make predictions based on your knowledge of her colour genes, our experience and our boys' past results. It will be an educated guess however. Even with all our years experience, Mother Nature still likes to surprise us at times with colours we would never expect from a pairing.

Do you offer AI? (Artificial Insemination)

Yes, we offer artificial insemination at no extra charge when you are using our stud dogs.  Artificial insemination is the best way of mating your girl in our opinion.  It is quick, clean, less stressful for the girl and our success rates are even better than natural matings with this method.  

We are trained and highly experienced in performing this procedure.  all equipment used is from sealed packaging.  It is single use and disposable so is brand new and gets disposed of immediately after the mating. 

Artificial insemination is also useful if you have a bitch that will not stand for a natural mating, even when the time is right.  Or a bitch that is very nervous or excitable or difficult to mate. Not every bitch is forthcoming, even when it's the right time to mate.

Can I pay extra for a 3rd visit?

One mating is usually plenty to get a successful pregnancy. We do offer a second mating free of charge if requested, usually around 48 hours later. Sometimes we get asked for a 3rd mating and as long as the dog is available and not at rest before his next booking then we can accommodate. The additional mating will be charged at half the original stud fee. People that request a 3rd mating have usually had trouble getting their girl pregnant in the past or are not sure exactly when the season began. Some people just want to cover a longer period of possible ovulation - belt and braces approach.   

How can your smaller Dog mate my taller Bitch?

We are very experienced in accommodating matings of this nature and will sort out all the logistics in order to ensure a successful natural mating. We have a steps of different sizes for our boys to stand on. Alternatively we offer artificial insemination at no extra charge and this will give you the best chance of a litter.
