@Rebecca Christie MB Tutor So, I bought some from a repro vet that ended up selling his practice after I attempted to breed my girl the first time, which was April 2024. He told me to put it in my freezer. It is now A year and 3 months in my freezer. I guess it is safe to say I need to toss it and buy more? The problem is that I have no idea where to buy it now. 🥲 Thank you for your comment!!!

I was under the impression that it is also important to get official OFA hip, elbow, shoulder, cardiac, and patella’s done. Hips at 2 years old. What is the difference between OFA hips and Penn Hip testing? Also, how important is it to have titles on dogs? I actually love earning titles in my dogs, but how important are they for breeding? Thank you for this video! I had no idea that I needed to get my boy’s sperm tested. Thanks!!

@Danielle Heathcote Yes, I am in the US. People seem to want every test done. Maybe it depends on the breed, too. Hips, elbows, shoulders, patellas, are important for Border Collies since we do dog sports. I suppose…

Does anyone use frozen plasma when their puppies are born? If so, where do you purchase it? How do you administer it? Thank you in advance! Pam
