| Very agressive female during attempt to tie Help! I have tried to breed my girl 4 or 5 times and she will not have it. She tucks her tail under and she has even gotten agressive with the smaller males. Someone suggested to muzzle her, but I'm at a loss. Does anyone have any suggestions for a sucessful tie? |

I know nothing at all about breeding but if your girl does not want to breed at this point no way would I muzzle her. That sounds barbaric! IMO would only stress her out even more. Sounds like she's just not ready. | |

| Has she ?? Have you taken her to your vet to be sure everything is ok? has she been breed before? maybe she's just not ready? If this is her first time she may just be scared. Will the male let you hold her? Try some Ky jelly. good luck let us know how it goes. |

| I know, the thought of muzzling her makes me wanna cry. She will be 4 years old in a few days and she has not once flagged or ever had a sucessful tie. |

Why would you want to force her then? I would guess not all females were made to produce puppies. I think she's telling you this. Have her spayed and let her enjoy her life in peace. Why the need to have puppies? | |

If she has, I don't know if you have another set of hands to help you. One to hold the male the other to hold and calm the female. You may try using a soft silk scarf gently wrapped around her muzzle......She obviously is frightened.....and she needs to be calmed.

| EEK.....I dont think I could force my unwilling female to mate. That seems like rape. Why not artificial insemination?? |

| Maybe she is just frightened. That makes sense, since she is still technically a virgin. This would be her first time, regardless of age. Maybe if I love on her and try to calm her, she will relax. Any other suggestions? |

| I strongly suggest that she not be bred. You don't breed a bitch for the first time after the age of 3. You're asking for trouble; her physical well being is at stake.

As Mardelin told you, four years old is too old to have her first litter. I suggest you stop trying to breed her. | |

| Have you talked with your vet about this? Does he agree that it's safe for your girl to bred for the first time at her age?
