csm 0 Posted December 15, 2008 Report Share Posted December 15, 2008 would it be possible to save sperm from a dog that could be used in the future ? Quote Link to post
Dawn B 212 Posted December 15, 2008 Report Share Posted December 15, 2008 You can collect sperm from live dogs and use it later yes. A golden retriever that died over 20yrs ago recently "sired" another litter!! This is in pedigree dogs though and Im not sure how or who you would contact to go about it, maybe the animal health trust? Quote Link to post
Tiff 36 Posted December 15, 2008 Report Share Posted December 15, 2008 I have heard of dogs who have died and the owners have taken the body in and had sperm collected and frozen for future use. Obviously there is a time issue. Quote Link to post

dev 226 Posted December 15, 2008 Report Share Posted December 15, 2008 r.booths is still producing pups this way off his old simon dog i think, so yes it can be done Quote Link to post
Tiff 36 Posted December 15, 2008 Report Share Posted December 15, 2008 I've done it here but obviously my costs are different than yours, mine costs about quid a year to store, and the original collection was about 200 quid. I was told back then that it is only viable to a high percentage for about 10 years Quote Link to post
csm 0 Posted December 16, 2008 Author Report Share Posted December 16, 2008 thats not so expensive if its a simalar price here ? Quote Link to post

Greengrass 201 Posted December 16, 2008 Report Share Posted December 16, 2008 surely the sperm would have to be collected before the dog died ?????????? Quote Link to post
csm 0 Posted December 16, 2008 Author Report Share Posted December 16, 2008 surely the sperm would have to be collected before the dog died ?????????? yes, but then could be used after the dog died . a dog dont have to be past his best to die in this game . Quote Link to post
BBB 7 Posted December 16, 2008 Report Share Posted December 16, 2008 yeah but who's gonna give the dog a wank to get the stuff make sure you got a topperware container ready to catch it as well Quote Link to post
Simoman 110 Posted December 16, 2008 Report Share Posted December 16, 2008 yeah but who's gonna give the dog a wank to get the stuff You angling for a job? I've seen the frozen sperm vats at the Guide dogs for the blind, they have huge reserves Quote Link to post
dev 226 Posted December 16, 2008 Report Share Posted December 16, 2008 i have three pups here produced by sperm that was stored. your first visit they will collect a sample, a week later you go back and they take the next sample for storage total cost € 250, and € 50 per year storage. i know a good few dogs around my way born like this. if you have a dog worth doing then see a vet for advise, i dont want any pms for names and numbers on this subject, years ago when i had the "blind dog" lads laughed and sniggered behind my back when i said i was doing this, who is laughing now !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! just a quick question timmy, how much is stored at a time? how many bitches could be fertilised with one sample taken from the dog?? my mate has a dog that is worth doing this with for the future Quote Link to post
