What is the best method to use when covering more than one bitch with one stud?
Bitches ovulating the same day? I do not have much experience with breeding but i'd do progesterone tests on both, and if that's in fact the case. I would breed the one i want the most first and hope the stud produced enough semen to en pregnant the 2nd bitch 24 houres later.
I'd collect the stud in a vial... Split the collection... Add extender and do an a.i.
I bred Poncho to 3 bitches at the same time during the week.Quote:

Skipped that evening ...
Returned to the first bitch the following morning to repeat the above. Did that for 3 days in a row
All 3 bitches took ... one of which was the litter that produced Gr Ch Zukill and 5 littermates (all 6 were matched, 5 out of 6 won, earning 12 wins total).
