To know exactly what colour puppies will be produced you will need to DNA test your female with Embark’s breeder kit (not their standard kit).
Genetic COI: 23% (breed average 26%)
Pedigree COI: 0.1% (breed average 0.3%)
Embark match-maker available to find out the predicted average genetic COI % of the planned litter, should your female also be tested with Embark.
Copies of all health test results can be provided.
Semen tested, consistently large samples with excellent motility (80%+) and morphology. Recent semen test certificate can be produced. Bear is very fertile!
Chilled or frozen semen can be delivered anywhere in the UK (frozen semen can be delivered worldwide) at cost. Frozen semen can be purchased to be used at a later date.
Bear can mate naturally or via AI, whichever is preferred.
We recommend a minimum of 2 matings per breeding 24 to 48 hours apart, although one well timed mating can suffice. Should your girl not fall pregnant, Bear can provide a free repeat stud service on her next heat.
All females - must - have their progesterone levels tested before being introduced to Bear so we know they are definitely ready to be mated.
