The best time for dog mating

When a female dog is in estrus, the suitable breeding period is 2-4 days. You can calculate the initial period of estrus based on the female dog’s initial period of estrus. The obvious swelling, flushing or first drop of blood in the female dog’s vulva is the initial period of estrus. Primiparous dogs usually mate on the 11th to 13th day, and multiparous dogs on the 11th to 13th day. The first mating time is between 9 and 11 days. The first mating time for older dogs can be slightly earlier. Generally, the mating time will be advanced one day for every 2 years of age or 24 litters. Some high-yielding female dogs will go into estrus for 5 days after giving birth multiple times. That means the bleeding stops, and you can get pregnant on the 6th or 7th day of insemination.

The first estrus is not suitable for breeding

Generally speaking, when a pet dog is in estrus for the second time, it should be ready for breeding. But strictly speaking, breeding of male dogs can wait until about 2 years old, while breeding of female dogs can wait until about 1 and a half years old. Under normal circumstances, a dog will go into heat for the first time when it is about 6-8 months old after birth. However, this time the dog cannot be bred. Because the dogs at this time are only sexually mature and have not reached physical maturity, they cannot be bred. It will be half a year later when the dogs are in heat for the second time. At this time, the dogs are already adults and can be bred.

The breeding partner must also be suitable

Generally speaking, the best dog breeding options are:

1. The breeds are the same and the size is not much different, but inbreeding should be avoided;

2. It is best to choose a male or female dog in young adulthood. It is best not to consider dogs after seven years old.

3. Good health and no genetic diseases. The dogs of both breeding partners do not have epilepsy, cryptorchidism, heart disease, deafness, cataracts, dental malocclusion, hernia, bone and joint disease or serious skin diseases. After breeding such dogs, the puppies will be of the best quality.
