Are dogs suitable for winter mating?

Dogs are not suitable for winter mating. The gestation period of female dogs is about 58 to 60 days. The birth temperature of female dogs is too low for winter mating, so it is not suitable for female dogs. Recovery, the survival rate of puppies is not as high as spring and autumn mating.

Dog estrus time

Under normal circumstances, dogs go into estrus twice a year, from March to May in spring and from September to November in autumn. Many physiological phenomena will occur.
1. Proestrus
It lasts 7-10 days. The eggs are close to maturity, the epithelium of the reproductive tract proliferates, the gland activity is strengthened, and the secretions increase. The vulva is congested, the vulva is swollen, flushed and moist, and there will be "menstruation". At this time, the smell of the female dog is very important and will attract the male dog to sniff it.
2. Mid-estrus
It is the period when the signs of estrus are most obvious and the best time for mating, lasting 6-14 days. The vagina continues to swell and become soft, the red mucus flowing out becomes lighter, and the bleeding decreases or stops. The female dog will take the initiative to approach the male dog. When the male dog climbs over, the female dog will take the initiative to tilt her tail to one side, and the vagina will open to allow mating.
3. In the late stage of estrus, the swelling of the vulva subsides, and then it enters the anestrus state. Male dogs are not allowed to approach. If you are already pregnant, the late stage of estrus becomes the pregnancy stage.

The natural mating process of dogs

1. After selecting the male dog for mating, you can first let the male and female dogs mate before mating. Be familiar with each other so that future mating can go smoothly.
2. Calculate the date when the female dog is in estrus, and when deciding on the mating date, take the female dog to the male dog’s residence. Because the female dog will be very strong and aggressive in her own chassis, the male dog will be confident in mating, and the mating will go smoothly.
3. When the female dog is willing to mate, her tail will move to one side. The male dog will mount the female dog and eject the first part of semen. The male dog’s genitals will be locked in the female dog’s vagina, and the two dogs will be connected together.
4. About one minute after they are connected together, the male dog will get off the back of the female dog and form a tail-to-tail connection. The male dog will continue to ejaculate. The process will take about 20 minutes or more. The owner should not force the two dogs to ejaculate. Dogs separated.
