I had purchased a stud for my yard and my bitch was in heat and within her 14 day window. Well needless to say, my bitch lured him behind the shed and the rest is history. To get to the point, this was, indeed a planned breeding however not at the time it happened. I called a breeder I did business with, I told him the sitiuation and he informed me to put iodine drops in her water daily and that will abort the puppies BUT it can have an adverse effect on the bitch AND future litters.

Because this was a planned breeding, and she is a key bitch, I said the hell with it, I will have to start early in this breeding. Like Jack said preventative maintenance.
