Breeding Dog

Dog Breeding Check Pack

Brucellosis screening, progesterone and a smear, for a female dog planned for breeding.

5 tests in one package · Sample: Serum + whole blood (EDTA) + vaginal smear

The Dog Breeding Check Pack is for a female dog being planned for breeding. Canine brucellosis can cause abortion and infertility and can pass to people, so it is screened before breeding. Progesterone and a vaginal smear help your vet judge the right time to mate, and a CBC checks general health. The stud dog may need brucellosis screening and a semen analysis, which your vet can request separately. A registered veterinarian reads the results together with the animal's signs and history.

Questions about this package

Why test for brucellosis before breeding?

Canine brucellosis can cause abortion and infertility, and it can pass to people. Screening before breeding helps protect the dog, the puppies and the family. Wash hands and wear gloves when handling a birth or aborted material.

Does the stud dog need testing too?

Often yes. Your vet can request brucellosis screening and a semen analysis for the male dog.

Can progesterone tell the exact day to mate?

It helps your vet judge the stage of the heat, and it is read with the smear and the dog's behaviour. Your vet decides the timing.

Packages support your veterinarian’s decisions; they do not replace an examination. A registered veterinarian should read the results together with your animal’s signs and history.
