Estrus Timing with In-House Progesterone Testing

Proper timing is essential for successful breeding. At The Hometown Veterinarian, we offer in-house progesterone testing to accurately determine the best time for breeding. Progesterone levels indicate the progression of a dog’s heat cycle, allowing for precise estrus timing and a greater chance of conception. With our on-site testing capabilities, you’ll have fast and reliable results, helping you plan the breeding process with confidence.

Artificial Insemination (AI)

Artificial insemination offers a safe, controlled breeding option for dogs, allowing for genetic diversity and access to quality genetics from around the world. At The Hometown Veterinarian, we provide both traditional artificial insemination and surgical artificial insemination. Surgical AI is performed under anesthesia and involves placing semen directly into the uterus, increasing the likelihood of conception in cases where natural insemination is challenging. Our team is highly skilled in these techniques, ensuring a comfortable, safe experience for your dog.

Pregnancy Monitoring with Ultrasound and Radiographs

To monitor your dog’s pregnancy, we offer both ultrasound and high-resolution digital radiographs to confirm pregnancy and assess fetal development. Ultrasound provides a safe, non-invasive method to check for heartbeats and early signs of pregnancy, while radiographs are useful later in the pregnancy to determine litter size. These diagnostic tools help us closely track your dog’s progress and provide peace of mind for a healthy pregnancy.

Caesarean Section (C-Section)

A safe and successful delivery is our top priority. For dogs with high-risk pregnancies or breeds prone to delivery complications, we Caesarean sections. This procedure is performed in our well-equipped surgical suite with CO? laser technology, ensuring minimal pain and recovery time.
