Dont know about Rasberry leaf,never heard of that before.

It is possible to inject her with Galastop to induce a season but obviously it is a POM so you would have to take her to your vet for that.

However,when they have been artificially induced they are much harder to get into pup.

The other option is to move her to another kennel or to a friends house as quite often the change of environment is enough to cause them to break into season,even better if you could send her to someone who already has a bitch in season that usually does the trick.

 

Alternatively give the Rasberry leaf a go it cant do any harm

Raspberry leaf is used to help tone up the uterus so making birth easier: women have used it for centuries. Won't have any use on bringing a bitch into season. I've known a few people try to bring a bitch into season, seldom with success: though there is a type of injection used on pigs: hurts like hell apparently and very sore for days afterwards round the injection site. IMO much better to let a bitch cycle naturally and stuff suiting the owner: messing with nature sometimes has unwanted side effects.
