We can perform vaginal cytology on female dogs to help determine the optimum time to breed and enhance the success of pregnancy. To do so, we take a swab of the vaginal cells and analyze them under a microscope. Usually more than one swab is required.
Additional tests, including a thyroid analysis, should be performed on your dog before her estrus cycle. These tests can rule out any potential problems or alert you to issues that need to be addressed before breeding.
Please call and set up an appointment with one of our veterinarians to discuss how we can further assist you with your breeding program.
Dr. Zubaidy and her team of veterinary nurses and client care staff are ready to help you and your furry (or feathered) family members! We are dedicated to providing quality, individualized care to each pet in our care and strive to make each pet feel loved like they are one of our own! While our number one priority is the medical care of your beloved pet, our second priority is to provide a comfortable and welcoming environment for you.
