I try to keep them clean year round. I had a gyp once that wouldn’t ever take. I wasn’t hunting her because I didn’t want to chance losing her before I got pups out of her. Took her and had her checked by a vet and he said he didn’t see anything that was wrong with her. The studs I tried her with both produced before and after trying her. She wasn’t couch potato fat but heavier than you would want to hunt her. An old man said to pull her down to a hunting weight and see what happened. Like magic she took. I should’ve kept her fat! I give 1cc of Ivomec (under the skin) to a 45-50 pound gyp 2 weeks into her pregnancy and again 2 weeks before whelping. This was what my greyhound buddy and his veterinarian partner figured out with the greyhounds except they did 2cc on the greyhound gyps. I try to put weight on my females starting a couple weeks after I have them bred. I continue to feed soaked feed too. I will likely always feed soaked feed to all my dogs. I believe it makes a difference.
