I think if the sample was bad (very low count of live, active sperm), or mishandled and all the sperm died, they would cancel the procedure. Or in the case of a low sperm count, they would tell you and ask how you want to proceed: try with the sample or request another sample from the stud. |
thank you, I had a good talk with a breeder that AI all her bitches, she said is the way to go, she explained everything to me in a way that I was able to understand and apreciate all that goes into it. I would recomend this to anyone looking to breed her bitch to a great stud that is not right there to breed. It cost me a bit but I would do it again , my nerves are starting to settle now that I know she is pregnant and I just got a do what I do best , take care of her..
hugs,
