QUESTION: she is in 12 day now and still nothing but i brouth another male here and hes all over her but cant get tied

ANSWER: What does your boy do when the other male is trying to breed your female? If he has absolutely no interest in her at all, or doesn't care when another male tries to mount her, then I'd highly suggest having his thyroid checked out. Put your male where he can watch the two. This will usually get them going, and show them what they're suppose to do. If you're wanting to use your boy, then don't let your female and the othe male actually breed. Just let him watch them try. This is called using a teaser male. From what I'm reading and understanding, you decided to use a different male. Is he actually getting in the right place when he tries? And is this new boy a proven stud?

Answer
I'd definitely have his thyroid checked. You can't force a dog to breed. If you really want pups from this boy, you may have to end up using A.I. Then, I'd be worried about passing on his breeding problems to his pups. First thing I would do if this boy was mine, would be to have a thyroid check done. If he passed that, I'd give him a bit more time and try again. Humping toys and such really isn't a sex thing.
