I am all for free whelping and gentle assisting (which I've only done once). None of that roll up your sleeves and dig in kind of assistance. How would 'you' like that?
Oh and an episiotomy with out anesthetic...uh..no thanks!
Again, I am not criticizing those that may do things differently than myself. I am just sharing how I currently run my breeding program; which is always subject to change as I learn and grow as a breeder.
