Reproductive Services

OPVMC offers reproduction services for those who plan to breed their dog.  This applies for the casual breeder for that "once in a lifetime" experience or for professional dog breeders looking to improve the reproductive health of their kennel or produce next year's champion.  Our services assist with problems encountered while letting "nature take her course" such as inability for the female to conceive, small litters, mates or potential mates that are far away, and difficulty of the mom-to-be in giving birth.  Several of our veterinarians regularly practice this area of medicine and are experienced in this field. 

THERIOGENOLOGY (REPRODUCTIVE MEDICINE)
 
Reproduction is a complex body function, the understanding of which spans several medical disciplines and body systems. While we emphasize responsible pet ownership and prevention of inadvertent pregnancy, we are willing and able to help you manage your pet's reproductive health.  We perform pre-mating reproductive health evaluations (breeding soundness), estrus (heat) detection and timing, optimal mating scheduling, mating management, artificial insemination, pregnancy determination, pregnancy management counseling, delivery management, surgical delivery (caesarian section) and fertility problem management.
