Thinking about breeding your pet? We can help!
We understand that breeding your animal is a big decision. It takes time, knowledge, and preparation. Our veterinarian is here to guide you through the process with a variety of breeding services to make things smoother and increase your chances of success.
Here’s what we offer:
- Breeding soundness exam: This is a complete checkup for your pet’s reproductive health. We’ll discuss your animal’s health history, examine them thoroughly, and look for anything that might affect mating, pregnancy, or giving birth.
- Male exams: For males, we’ll check their testicles, prostate, and genitals to make sure everything is functioning properly.
- Female exams: For females, we’ll do a vaginal and mammary gland exam to assess their overall reproductive health.
- Progesterone testing: This is a simple test that helps us track your pet’s hormone levels. By knowing when they are ovulating (releasing an egg), we can time breeding attempts perfectly, whether you’re going for natural mating or artificial insemination.
By using these services, you’ll be setting your pet up for a healthy and successful breeding experience.
C-Sections: Providing the Best Care for Your Pet During Delivery
C-sections, also known as Cesarean sections, are sometimes necessary for a safe and successful delivery. Our veterinarian is experienced in performing C-sections and has the latest equipment to ensure the best outcome for your pet.
Here’s why a C-section might be recommended:
- Natural whelping is impossible: Certain situations, like pelvic size issues or complications with the positioning of the puppies/kittens, can make natural birth difficult or even dangerous. A C-section allows for safe delivery in these cases.
- Benefits for your pet: Even in situations where natural delivery is possible, a C-section might be the best option for your pet’s health or the health of the litter.
We understand the importance of a smooth and safe delivery process:
- Pre-surgical planning: We will carefully review your pet’s medical history to identify any potential risks and ensure a safe surgical environment. We also offer blood tests to identify any preexisting conditions that could threaten a successful surgery.
- Precise timing: Timing a C-section is crucial. Based on breeding and ovulation dates, we can advise on the best timing for the procedure to optimize success and minimize complications.
- Advanced surgical techniques: Our veterinarian uses state-of-the-art surgical tools, including surgical lasers, which offer several benefits:
- Reduced bleeding: Lasers can minimize blood loss during surgery, leading to a faster recovery.
- Improved precision: Lasers offer exceptional precision, leading to a cleaner incision and potentially reducing post-surgical discomfort.
- Laser therapy for faster healing: In addition to surgical lasers, we may also recommend post-surgical laser therapy. This non-invasive treatment can:
- Reduce pain and inflammation
- Promote faster tissue healing
By combining expert care, meticulous planning, and advanced technology, we aim to provide your pet with the best possible C-section experience, promoting a smooth recovery and a healthy litter.
