Let the female dog be pregnant at the most appropriate time

Dogs are not like humans. They have the opportunity to conceive and become mothers every month. The female dog has a certain amount of time to estrus and will only ovulate at that time. Therefore, as long as you observe the time when the bitch ovulates, you will not be in a hurry. In addition, do female dogs also have so-called elderly mothers? What age is the best time for female dogs to give birth?

The female dogs first estrus is mostly at 8 or 9 months, and the second time is after the next 4-5 months. It is best to wait until the dog is in heat for the second time before breeding. Because the female dog was not 1 year old when she first started estrus and was not mature, she was still a child and was not good at raising a puppy. Just like a minor girl who had a pregnancy and gave birth, she was not good for the mother and son before she was still mature.

Especially medium and large dogs, although they already look like an adult dog when they are 7 months old, they are still in the stage of late development and maturity. If they are allowed to get pregnant less than 1 year old, it will affect the absorption of nutrients and will also affect development. Therefore, it is generally recommended that the time for female dogs to breed is better after 1 and a half years old.

In addition, it is necessary to remind the owner that the dog will have better quality of pregnancy before the age of 5. Although it is OK between 5 and 7 years old, the older the age, the worse the quality, and the fewer the number of births will be. Moreover, it is best to have at least more than a year between each conception and the last conception, which is also better for the body nutritional distribution of puppies.
