Canine Breeder Technologies © Focused on Canine Reproduction Equipment & Innovation
Todays canine enthusiasts have a plethora of information and technology available to them via the internet. Some of it is good and some not so good. The purpose of our business is to offer top notch canine reproduction technology with excellent customer service and support.
So what makes us so special?
While we are certainly not "special", but we are seasoned breeders, we currently raise and show AKC French Bulldogs. We also raise long coat German Shepherds that we have imported from Poland, our Shepherds carry IPO titles and show ratings. We have been breeding/raising dogs since 1988!
We started out testing our French Bulldogs with some of the "color change" progesterone tests that are available on the market, after a steep learning curve we became rather proficient with them and we had great success getting our Frenchies in whelp. It became known in our area that we did this testing and soon we had many clients coming to us for their progesterone testing, our local veterinarian even sent people to us for testing. Then, we were introduced to the P4 Progesterone Analyzer that would provide real numbers, the only problem was the machines and testing supplies were located overseas. We decided to take the risk and ordered some equipment, it was a huge success and we built relationships with the overseas providers. We started getting many inquiries from fellow breeders about the P4 Analyzer and soon they wanted to purchase their own equipment, even our local veterinarian purchased one and it is used everyday.
We attend several canine reproduction seminars and lectures every year, many provided by the University Of Missouri College of Veterinary Medicine, we do a lot of our own studies and we double check our progesterone readings with Iddex Labs.
