Reproduction

With a deep understanding of animal reproduction, we provide expert care and advice, from breeding advice to neonatal care.

C-Section

In the wild, animals usually give birth naturally, but sometimes our domestic pets need a helping hand. A C-section, or Cesarean section, is a surgical procedure we use to deliver puppies or kittens when natural birth isn’t possible or safe. This could be due to the size or positioning of the babies or health concerns for the mother. We monitor the mother closely and take every precaution to ensure a safe delivery for both mother and her newborns. It’s our privilege to bring these new lives into the world.

Neonatal Care

The first few weeks of a newborn pet’s life are critical. Just like human newborns, they require delicate and precise care. We provide expert neonatal care to ensure these little ones grow into healthy, happy adults. Whether it’s monitoring weight gain, checking for congenital issues, or providing necessary vaccinations, we’re committed to giving them the best possible start in life.

Ovulation Timing/Semen Evaluation

Timing is everything when it comes to successful breeding. We offer ovulation timing services to determine the best time for breeding, increasing the chances of a successful pregnancy. For males, we offer semen evaluation to assess their fertility. This involves examining the sperm count, motility, and overall health of the semen. Together, these evaluations can significantly enhance the success rate of breeding and help you plan for a growing furry family.

Pregnancy Evaluation and Management

Pregnancy is a miraculous yet complex process. Our team will guide you and your pet through each stage with the utmost care. Regular check-ups, ultrasound exams, and thorough evaluations ensure both the mother and the unborn puppies or kittens are healthy. We tailor our care approach based on the unique needs of the mother and her litter. We’re here to answer all your questions and put your mind at ease. 

Transcervical Insemination

Sometimes nature needs a little assistance. Transcervical insemination is a non-surgical method we use to aid in the breeding process. We introduce semen directly into the uterus through the cervix using a specially designed endoscope. This advanced technique increases the chances of conception, especially when natural breeding isn’t possible or practical. We’re with you every step of the way, ensuring the procedure is stress-free for your pet and you.
