So I want to know when you have yours blood tested? |
Not that there is anything wrong with your girls, but someone with a stud will generally require this and it is a very good sign that they do.

They are doing what is in the best interest of their male.
I am 99% sure that my vet told me it
can be spread other ways (and I'm pretty sure that's one of those endless debateable questions ) I don't see where it would hurt since it IS only a blood test...not a major fasting or demanding procedure for the girl.
