Breeding Labrador Retrievers (Artificial Insemination)

At Alderwood we have received many requests to provide stud service for female Labs. In the past, we have attempted to provide these services with mixed results. Problems of distance, nervous dogs, timing of estrus, among other things, have caused us to rethink our policy.

We charge a flat fee of $750 and ship the guaranteed semen to wherever you designate on the day (FedX) you designate.

We were introduced to
Professor Carrol C. Platz, Jr. who is the founder of ICSB in Sandy, Oregon. ICSB's program is based on techniques developed by Prof. Platz.  Through 28 years of research started at the University of Oregon Medical School, Baylor College of Medicine, Texas A&M University and continuing at the ICSB laboratories in Sandy, Oregon.

At Alderwood, we now use the services of ICSB, exclusively, to provide stud service to those who are interested in our males. You can  learn more about ICSB from their website if you click the logo below or you can click here.

Alderwood Breeding Services

We offer chilled semen to you or your veterinarian at the exact day or the day before that you tell us to have it arrive. Working with your vet or Service Technician, you determine what the conception window is for you female, we then in turn, ship the semen to arrive on or just before that day.
 
Using The Puppy Pak®, provided by ICSB, we provide the easiest technique and prevent damage to sperm cells due to over handling during the collection, packaging and shipping process.

Easy to use - just 4 simple steps:

  1. Collect semen specimen from dog,
  2. Pour specimen into the media tube and cap,
  3. Place in the Puppy Pak® kit as instructed,
  4. Ship.

To inseminate, simply warm the cooled semen and inseminate
