Question
Hi my friend wants to use my dog as a stud to breed with her bitch and we have achieved 1 successful mating with them but my bitch is in season at same time and all he is doing is showing interest in my bitch and not the other now.Is there anything that can be done to achieve a 2nd mating to insure a pregnancy.

Answer
A second breeding doesn't insure pregnancy. Breeding at the correct time does. Or at least as close as you can come to insuring pregnancy,
If your male is no longer interested chances are the moment has passed with this female. A lot of times male dogs know.
If you really feel the need for a second breeding, remove the other bitch, or the two you want to breed to a different area where he cannot hear, see, or smell the other bitch
good luck
