Our repro services include serial progesterone testing, vaginal smears to stage estrus, assistance with natural mating, ‘side by side’ artificial insemination, surgical insemination and trans-cervical insemination. (TCI), and Caesarian sections.
TCI is the practice of implanting frozen semen directly into the uterus while the patient is standing and awake. It is not a new technique but one which has obvious advantages over surgical fertilization.
Q: Can Baker Animal Clinic perform “in house” progesterone testing?
Yes we can. We maintain 2 different lab analyzers to ensure we get your dogs bred on time and with the least confusion. We also pair lab work with cytology. This helps pinpoint best breeding times.
