    Maurice,

    I have recently run into the same issue with my studs due to never breeding until late in their lives. What has worked for me is Vitamin E or Wheat Germ oil (pure), Tribulius a very low dose of Saw Palmetto (I do every other day) and a good quality joint supplement preferably with Perna Mussel.

    Also twice a year I run them on Doxycycline for 21 days to clear out any infections.

    And the most important is a good quality feed and good overall health otherwise you could be wasting money.

    I just AI'd an 8 year old male doing the above and had a litter of 6 healthy all male pups. As far as which ups your chances. I'd say surgically AI would yield the best results. Or breed naturally or AI to a proven producing bitch.

    Good luck,

    I inherited this male http://www.thepitbullbible.com/forum...p?dog_id=24651

    His owner fell on some hard times due to medical issues. His relatives fed his dogs for him for awhile and they were all real 'honkers', barrel shaped dogs.

    First time he couldn't breed due to pure exhaustion. Second time he could stay hard enough to penetrate. Over time I trimmed him down with daily walks and rough housing on the chain. Switched him to better food. Bred him again a couple of months later and another miss. I put him on the work up similar to the Pit Bull Bible. Tribulus, Saw Palmetto, Vitamin E, B-complex, wheat germ and dessicated liver. I didn't use Doxycycline but I did do two 7 day cycles of Amoxicillin over a three week period. Not sure it was as effective as Doxycycline but I went with the Moxy.

    I was hoping to get him 'up and clean' over a 60 day period but a bitch came in around 35 days of his new lifestyle. He threw 7 pups the first time after the treatments, the food and the weight loss. A month later he threw 8, wait six more months and he had 9 born this past Saturday.

    The work up in the Pit Bull Bible helped this dog. I would recommend it to anyone who is planning to dub one a stud dog. EWO
