Hormone shots

Found this on another site, I personally dont know that much about it but would try some natural things before I used shots!

Never give any heat inducing product to a female dog that has not had a natural heat first. A 14 month old dog who has not had a heat yet, is not that unusual. A five year old is. Even so, I had a 4 year old that had her first heat cycle, then had one every nine moths. Otherwise she was a healthy, happy good looking dog. She lived to be 16 years old. Giving hormones to induce a heat cycle in a young undeveloped female dog female will cause developmental problems with her ovaries and other reproductive parts. A young female dog who was not fully developed, by giving an inducing hormone, she will not come into heat regularly, and will not develop any more, because her body is tricked into thinking it is fully formed and most likely never developed eggs. The potential risk of no eggs, irregular heat cycles makes not worth using in the first place. Some may get lucky but most will ruin a young female dog by giving them hormones. In canines the different hormone therapies are used on mature dogs. at least Four or Five years old, who have had some natural cycles and are definitely fully developed. Then you have several choices of different hormones to try, not medicines. Be sure at this time to have a veterinarian administer the hormones, especially being you are just learning about these products. Then it is usually given to those who come in every 18 - 24 months, one time as a last shot. Maybe change your dog food, at something with high fat content on top of the food. Bacon grease, canola oil, sassafras oil, etc. Exercise is another factor, just about anyone can tell you about training / heavy exercising a dog sometimes seems to bring them right on in. I am sure many can tell you of taking their female on a long trip for a trial or a show and soon as they get back, the stress had induced a heat cycle. Also, if she is a house pet or something and never around male dogs, exposure to male dogs and the pheromones they emit, will often get the right hormones to kick in, in the female dog. Hope This Helps Brian DeBow

We used a drug called Carbergoline, worked great. Dog came in and the pups did great.

first of all I DO NOT recommend anyone do this, nor is the info below to be used for such..........

when I got GRNTCHGRCH Boughtons Red Ruby it was assumed she would never breed again. she hadn't had pups in 3 or 4yrs and hadn't even been in heat for a cpl. wasn't a spring chicken either....

the last litter she had carried went septic and had to be removed by c section (vet wanted to spay her but Jim (brier creek) refused)

anyway I bought her understanding she wouldn't have pups again and just did it to give one of the 4 Durango x Lucky grntch females a home.

just on a whim I gave her PG600 one day. this is a drug used in commercial hog farms to bring sows in heat...anyway she came in and had 2 pups, though had to be AIed with fresh semen because she never did attract males *read Looser* during that cycle.

even though she, her sisters, and most of the dogs in her background only came in once a yr........several months later she came in again and bred natural. had 6 pups.

Typically, it is best to not mess with mother nature. I have seen some females who hadn't been in heat for awhile come in heat when kenneled near a female who is in heat.

After a Little Digging looks like this Controversy will Continue...Has Helped some and Hindered Others...Just Search PG-600 and there are 30 or better threads about this very subject..I personally will continue trying the natural ways until I'm sure I have exhausted All... Thank You to All that took the time to Reply about their experiences...RBP
