so i tookl my male to see the female and he was very interested, as a first timer with this stuff i thought it was usual that he didnt mount her. she was flagging her tail and backing into him but the first and second time all he did was sniff and lick her. after a while i took him hime and he cried the entire way. maybe hes not interested. shes into her 2nd week of season according to the owners and both dogs are same breed size and around same age. 
can anyone please tell me what i am doing wrong and please, be nice thank you in advance ill take everything into consideration. |
The normal practice when breeding is to bring the female to the male. Some males feel very uncomfortable out of their environment and they will not attempt to breed. Are the male and female comparable in size? The best thing to do would be to put them together in one room and let them slowly get to know each other. You should never leave them alone unsupervised. Once he does start showing interest in the female then it is always best to hold the female once the male starts mounting her because often a female will get scared and pull away once the male penetrates her.
The truth is some males are very easy to breed and some are very difficult.
Do you know what day of her heat cycle she is on? Is she still showing any color? Most females are ready to breed sometime between the 9th and 18th day. Some will accept a male before the 9th day and some will accept a male up to 21 days after their heat cycle.
