It by no means guarantees a healthy litter. On the whole I'd agree it's worth a try just don't get your hopes up... 1 Quote Link to post

I've never had to use it but a mate of mine used it with his lab who failed to rear two litters he used this got a healthy litter of 7 pups , but there again labs are not as tightly bred as most working terriers, so maybe in/line breeding coupled with herps is the deciding factor 4 Quote Link to post
