Make sure your male and the bitch are shaved in their private areas as well. Does the girl "flag" her tail when being sniffed by your male? That is a good indication that she is ready to breed.

Thank you so much for your reply. I am worried that perhaps my friend maybe late and her count is off by several days as I see no discharge but a very swollen vulva. The dam has been staying with us for 3 days now and both of them have been shaved in their genital area(the dam was groomed right before she was dropped off at our place). Her tail is too short to make out if its upward, but I believe it does "flag" every now and then when our boy approaches her to lick her. Should I keep them separated in different ends of the house ? Is there anything that I can do at all to "put them in the mood" (so to speak) ?
