Cytology - £40
We use non-invasive cytology to evaluate the reproductive health of female dogs during the breeding process. Non-invasive cytology involves collecting a sample of cells from the vagina or reproductive tract of a female dog and examining it under a microscope to evaluate the stage of the reproductive cycle.
Cytology is a quick and non-invasive way to assess the stage of the reproductive cycle in female dogs, and it offers several advantages over other diagnostic techniques, such as blood hormone tests. Some of the advantages of non-invasive cytology for dog breeders include:
- Early detection of fertility: Non-invasive cytology can help breeders determine the optimal time to breed their female dogs, as it can identify when the female dog is in heat and ovulating. This allows breeders to maximize the chances of a successful breeding and pregnancy.
- Improved breeding management: By using non-invasive cytology, breeders can track the reproductive cycle of female dogs and plan future breeding activities accordingly. This can help ensure that the female dog is in optimal health and condition for breeding.
- Cost-effective: Non-invasive cytology is a cost-effective diagnostic technique, as it does not require specialized equipment or extensive laboratory testing.
- Minimally invasive: Non-invasive cytology involves collecting a small sample of cells from the vagina or reproductive tract of a female dog, which is minimally invasive and does not cause discomfort to the dog.
- Safe: Non-invasive cytology is a safe diagnostic technique, as it does not involve the use of anesthesia or other invasive procedures.
In summary, non-invasive cytology is a valuable diagnostic technique for dog breeders to evaluate the reproductive health of female dogs during the breeding process. By offering early detection of fertility, improved breeding management, cost-effectiveness, minimally invasive collection, and safety, non-invasive cytology helps breeders maximize the chances of a successful breeding and produce healthy litters of puppies with desirable characteristics.
