Why NOT use a specialist who is the most qualified to conduct ALL pre-mating tests? If it were my female I would want only the best. There are very few vets imo who are qualified to FULLY evaluate a female for breeding purposes. There is a lot more to it than measuring the diameter of the pelvic region. That is only one factor. There are very few small breed vets period and not many trained or experienced in working with breeding dogs.....they are just few and far between and you may have to travel to have the evaluation done by a specialist, but it is well worth the extra effort and expense if you care about your girl.
