Question
Hi, six year old female, very healthy, registered, does not know she is a dog!  We really wish to let her have the experience once and only once of having puppies.  And of course, we wish to have a puppy to remember her by when she does leave us.  Is she too old to risk breeding? Thank You, In Advance...Bill & Sharol

Answer

I love Pet Nurse Marie
Hi Bill and Sharol,  Ok, is she too old?  Well, no your girl is not  too old at all.  As long as the VET gives her a Clean Bill of Health, then sure look for a stud.

BEST wishes and make sure she is eating a good food and taking a good supplement.  NuVET makes a great vitamin and immune system booster.  Many pregnant moms take a NuVET wafer each day.
