Often takes up to one week for anti biotics to work, and so lower body temp and make dog fertile again. 2 Quote Link to post

In fact one lad wouldn’t breed without having now. Ive done the same in the past... Quote Link to post
fenman1# 724 Posted June 30, 2021 Report Share Posted June 30, 2021 Some antibiotics makes dogs infertile for either 6 weeks or months not sure what vet told me but this was the top fertile clinic in Ireland. I had my old dogs semen tested when bitch first broke down and there was a little blood in it I said will I give him a course of antibiotics and her exacts words was (jesus no way that's the last thing you want to do just go home and give him zinc everyday) 2 Quote Link to post
justdigit 180 Posted June 30, 2021 Report Share Posted June 30, 2021 My Mrs has started a little fertility clinic in Lancashire. If the dog has an infection it will show up on the microscope and snyulox will clear it up and not make sterile. Same with a bitch when they do sightology they can see an infection in a bitch then and same again antibiotics while in heat with no problem 4 Quote Link to post
