Hi all, today Dixie and I made a visit to Yogi's house. Yogi is such a sweet poodle...so cuddly looking...like a teddy bear. I think he will produce some lovely puppies!
He and Dixie sniffed one another a bit, and looked each other over but there was not instant chemistry. So we have concluded that she is not quite in her fertile stage yet. When a female dog is fertile the male dogs definitely knows it! Dogs will visit our home from miles around...that I have never seen before....sniffing and looking for Dixie in our yard. Believe me, we DO NOT take Dixie outside unattended!
So basically, if Dixie had been ready to mate, Yogi would have shown clear interest. But as it was they were mildly curious who the other dog was and that was about it. But that usually is the way it goes when I first take Dixie to her stud. I would rather be early then late, so I like to go early. She typically takes a few extra days to be ready. So we will try again soon.

You should post pictures of the little lovebirds! I would love to see what they look like. Do you breed your schnauzers to toy or mini poodles?
ReplyDeleteYou are right. I have been so focused on their doing their "thing" that I didn't even think of bringing the camera. I will definitely get photos tomorrow!
