I'm totally frustrated.
We did progesteron test on Friday before leaving to the mating. The result was - progesterone is very high (109), so probably it was 2 or 3 days after ovulation, and obviously too late for successful mating. If the male was in Lithuania, I would try to mate Gella anyway - but our chosen male lives abroad, so it was too risky going for the mating with so little chance for success....
I am more than depressed, constantly blaming myself for miscouting those days of the heat, because I should do this test on Monday on 9th day of the heat, not on Friday, when it already was 14th day. Probably it's the consequence of my flegmatic nature and inability of taking quick decisions....
So the result of this mating epopee - 4 years old bitch, who will be 5 years old by her next heat, no litters born yet, and no guarantee, that there will be any litters at all....
Please forgive me all the people whom I've disappointed in the field related to this mating.......
Happy Christmas me.......
