At Farfalla Frenchies we are experienced in all forms of artificial insemination. There are many different factors that can determine which method will be the best for your pet- when a natural breeding may not occur due to the location of the sire or the dam, or if other physical or behavioral issues do not allow for natural breeding to happen.
Transvaginal Insemination
This is the most common, and least complex form of AI. With transvaginal insemination, a pipette is inserted into the vagina just below the cervix. It is highly recommended that only fresh or fresh-chilled semen be used in this technique with a bitch that is known to have good fertility. Many breeders perform this technique without the assistance of a vet- but we don’t recommend it for novice breeders without proper supervision and education. A failed breeding may occur as a result. We’d be happy to show you how to do this. Our service fee for insemination is $250. It retails at $500 at your vets office and we allow our clients to participate and inspect the process to learn more about the health of their dogs and the breeding process. You must have a accurate progesterone test from your vet to measure the peak of ovulation to ensure the artificial insemination ensures a successful pregnancy.
