I just bred my bitch on the 9th, 10th and 11th day. She stood and tied those three days. I took her home and my male (who has not mated with her) is still going bonkers wanting her and it's the 14th day. I'm wondering if maybe I bred her too early?? (even though she stood and tied) or if my male is just a little coo-coo from not breeding.
I would hope that with three ties it would get the job done. If she's standing and tying, shouldn't that mean it's the right time?
Your bitch may stand until the 18th day, some even longer.
Your vet can determine by vaginal smear the appropriate time, but the days that you bred her are assumed by many to be very good days, assuming the day you began counting was actually the first day of heat. Without any vet exam, some people will breed a bitch every other day beginning on the 9th day until she no longer stands for the stud.
Your male dog will be interested longer than your female will stand.
Do not allow your male dog to be with your female dog for at least 21 days after the first day of heat. If your female is bred by your "at home" male she may have a litter which is split, some pups from the sire you chose, some by the dog at home, or maybe even all by the "at home" dog -- She ovulates (releases her eggs to meet the sperm) AFTER the standing period has ended --the semen remains viable inside the bitch, waiting for ovulation.
