Forum Rules | 1. Here we prefer clarity to agreement. Obviously not everyone is going to agree on a topic; here we prefer to talk out our differences in a respectful manner to ensure mutual understanding and respect. 2. Read the Stickies and Announcements. Each sub-forum may have specific rules which trump the Forum Rules in cases where there may be conflicting information. Read the rules of each board before you post so that you are clear on the expectations of the staff. 3. Respect ALL Staff and Admins. These people volunteer of their time and MUST be respected as well as their word adhered to. They are responsible for maintaining a free, open, clear and organized forum. Anyone found to be openly undermining any official ruling by a staff member will be warned. 4. Signatures: One picture only and no links. Images: To keep the forum looking neat and tidy, we ask that members insert just one picture only in their signatures. The picture should be no more than 200x500 pixels and should be of an appropriate subject, for example, your dogs and their names. Should you need assistance creating an appropriate signature, please PM an Admin and we would be happy to help! This is to ensure that signatures remain a welcome addition to our forum instead of a cumbersome distraction. Links: Hyperlinks in signatures--unless to a personal blog or photo stream of your dogs (like Flckr or Piscasa, for example)--are strictly prohibited. Please PM a staff member with any questions or concerns regarding this rule. |

| Hi Guys, I'm new to the forum, not too new to breeding. My mom and I bred Bernese Mountain Dogs for years along with us working for a German Shepard rescue and fostering all the pregnant females. This is my first time owning a breeding Blair and our very first litter. My female is incredibly healthy and all the puppies are healthy and due to come meet us in the next few days. What I am worried about is my Male, he is incredibly skinny, it started when my female Skyy came into heat. I know it is normal for them to lose weight when the birch is in heat, but now that she is so close to her due date Koda(my male) has become clingy, has had diarrhea and throws up every morning....
Does anyone know if this is somewhat common for the male to become stressed further into the pregnancy? |

| Have you taken him to the vet to make sure there isn't anything more going on?

| I am mostly bumping this thread in hopes lani will see it. Being a good breeder is hard work and the changes that a pregnant household goes through is something only a select few of us have experience with.
That said, how is his appetite? Has he been eating fairly normal? _________________ |

| This is a red flag for me....This is not sounding like a healthy male and not at all 'normal' behavior. Yes it is common for a male to go off his food as a bitch nears receptive readiness to be bred....but not to continue that behavior through gestation. I would seriously be taking a trip to the vet with this dog. I also strongly recommend a complete separation of the male from the whelping area and away from the developing puppies.
For future recommended reading if you continue to consider breeding I suggest- http://www.shca.org/shcahp4b.htm
