I charge £450 for a mating with my boys, and offer a free boarding service for your girl in my home with my own canine family, where she will be loved and looked after in the same way as my own dogs. I only ask that you bring her food/ bedding/favourite toy etc., to help her to feel secure in her new environment. I recommend leaving your girl with me for a few days as it helps to ensure she is with the dog on the correct day, at her peak time.

All my matings are done as nature intended - naturally! I will never force a bitch to mate, or use a muzzle - if she is not happy to mate there is a good reason for it, and to force it on her is an act of cruelty. I allow the dogs time to get to know each other and enjoy some play time together. I feel it is kinder to the girls to have time to get to know me, the property, my other dogs, new scents etc., before expecting her to feel comfortable about going through a mating. I also believe that if she is mentally happy this will enhance her chances of conception. All the girls who have stayed with me for a mating have been very happy - so much so that their owners have had concerns about them wanting to go home!

When you collect your girl, I will give you a copy of  my dog's hips score and eye test - I will have shown them to you prior to the mating - and a photograph of the dogs tied, as this will show you beyond question that the mating has taken place - after all you will only have my word for it without this. I will also give you a signed litter registration document to enable you to register your litter with the Kennel Club, and ask that you pay your full fee at this time. In the unlikely event that your girl does not conceive at this first mating time, a free mating will be offered on her next season.
