On the way to a country that I wanted to visit for a long time... for vacation?...of course not.. to give a series of lectures on small animal reproduction...
Which country that can be 🤔...
A sunny Sunday in Vienna...back in the practice for optimal breeding timing of a gorgeous female dog and artificial insemination of another beautiful female dog with frozen semen that was collected and frozen 4 years ago.... now it is time to carve a Halloween pumpkin face...#reprospecialist ##progesterone #transcervicalinsemination #frozensemen #dog

Ein sonniger Sonntag in Wien...zurück in der Praxis zum Deckzeitpunktbestimmung einer wunderschönen Hündin und zur künstlichen Besamung einer weiteren wunderschönen Hündin mit tiefgefrorenem Samen, der vor 4 Jahren entnommen und eingefroren wurde.... jetzt ist es Zeit, ein Halloween-Kürbisgesicht zu schnitzen...#progesteron #deckzeitpunktbestimmung #transzervikalbesamung #tiefgefrorenemsamen
Today I had a gorgeous female dog for artificial insemination with frozen semen...It is always fascinating to see the sperm cells swimming after being stored at -196C degrees and thawed at 37C..almost 235 degrees difference...
Fingers crossed for breeder...

Daumen drücken für den Züchter...
What a wonderful news from a lovely breeder...
A couple of months ago, a breeder contacted me to import frozen semen from the US... We had more than enough time to import the semen because the beautiful female dog would need several months to come into heat...But due to some problems collection and freezing was postponed for some weeks...In the mean time the female dog came into heat and the semen was still in the US...They shipped the semen a couple of days before the ovulation.. The dryshipper carrying the frozen semen arrived a day before insemination...At the end the gorgeous female dog was trancervically inseminated twice on the best days for fertilization...the result..she is PREGNANT...
I have a black board in my practice...I put a mark when the female dog gets or does not get pregnant after natural mating, or after insemination using fresh, chilled and frozen semen...
One more mark...to the frozen semen section...
A big congrats to the breeder...
Saturday morning...a tasty breakfast...and a gorgeous female dog for artificial insemination with frozen semen... now it is time to go for an emergency surgery... coffee? For sure I had one...

Holiday in Austria...I cannot think of a better day to freeze semen...After that time to enjoy Vienna....
Dear friends,
Wishing you all a year filled with new opportunities, new adventures, and new beginnings...and of course new puppies and kittens
Happy New Year!..
Hand gestures are very important in many civilizations.. Hand gestures help us to express our feelings without using words.. they may have good or bad meanings or they may support the feelings that we expressed by the words...
Italian culture means hand gestures to me... this is a gift that I got from a great friend of mine... it is just awesome...
Morning starting with this sound...priceless...(even before my first coffee of the day...)
One of the most important instruments that a repro specialist must have in his/her practice is a machine that can measure the progesterone concentration accurately... Because measurement of progesterone is absolutely crucial in diagnosis of certain reproductive conditions or in management of successfull breedings in dogs..About 10 years ago I used to send the blood to external labs for the measurement...But during those days I encountered two problems...having the result next day or not being able to measure it on WE or holidays...Therefore I was the first in Austria who invested on a machine that can measure the progesterone concentration with high accuracy and reliability i his practice...
Now new practice... but same old principles for breeders...
