Wow WOW, is right..and alot of uneducated breeders do not know it either...for a starter, they can get brucellosis. It renders them sterile, very nasty disease, painful also, they get sick and run a fever many times, males testicles swell..can run thorough an entire breeding program and wipe you out. If a pregnant bitch contracts it, she will lose the litter around 5 to 7 weeks..all will be dead..then she will most likely never conceive again...other dogs/bitches do not have to be bred to contract it...all they have to do is come into contact with discharge...and you know how dogs like to sniff butts..LOL |
