Hi,
My bitch has missed twice now from matings, both did progesterone tests prior to mating and went on the day as advised, not in house tests.
Just mated again and we got 3 matings. Prior to mating we had an ultrasound to confirm nothing abnormal was going on and also did a vaginal swab, conf strep so have a course of ab's - this was a month prior to season, she came in early.
Was advised by a repro vet to give herpes vacs at the beg pre mating which we've done and then a course of ab's after first mating which we are doing.
While not common there is a concern that she might be dropping her progesterone levels too quickly so will be testing again in 2 weeks time to check and to keep doing that until the scan.
Was advised that progesterone in oil is to give if drops too low.
Now while my vets have this info and amount to give I was wondering what are the side effects of doing this and how common are the side effects.
Each time we know she did ovulate.

Any other info is helpful if you have any aside from the side effects from giving this product.
I really want this litter.
To note first stud dog was older and not sperm tested but had provided a litter once before.
2nd stud dog a lot younger and had his sperm checked and he is fertile, also recently producing a litter.
Tried this dog again for this mating too.
