How much does it cost to get a bitch done with Ai?

About £150 I think

Did you try doing a progesterone test mate.Theres a few places around the country now that take a swab and look at it through a microscope and let you know exactly when to breed the bitch.

Some great handy looking dogs here.  Any of them show any guarding, defensive or aggression  traits? I know some of them cattle dogs do, against people like.  I've known a couple of Collies types that were feckers and my Mally X  would 100% nail someone if you needed her to.

Asking for a friend.

Pretty much all the ones iv'e known have shown guarding,looking after the owner and his family traits, there not really a defensive nervy type dog,in fact a very forward dog /But you do have to get on top of the guarding bit as they live to guard you and without it it could become a issue, i personaly  like a dog a stranger couldn't get hold of and a dog who'll stand in front of you should you ever need it to..

I got a little bitch here that had been naturally bred by somebody else twice and had 1 pup and no pups.When I decided to breed her the woman who owned the stud had a little clinic in her garden and asked to swab her and checked it under a microscope and said yeah you'd probably get pups but I'd give her a couple more days.2 days later she swabbed her again and checked it and said yep she looks bang on.9 weeks later 7 healthy pups.Maybe coincidence,Who knows

Ozz was bad as a pup, very loyal and very forward and up for guarding.  If I didn't bollock him he'd of nailed a few people,  he once ran into a farmer who walked onto a dig I was on. I hit a few high notes I didn't even know I'd got shouting him back,  he meant it. Strangely he's gone completely the other way with age, he'll still bark at people walking past the house but it's just an empty threat. 

He works the gun, retrieves fur and feather, jump anything,  with fur and feather too. In short I can't blow enough smoke up his arse

If there was a mongrel in season you didn't want him near he'd nail it and have a big litter too
