As a dedicated dog breeder, mastering the skill of performing an ultrasound scan for pregnancy offers numerous benefits that go beyond your breeding program. Here's why every dog breeder should consider acquiring this invaluable expertise and how it can foster close links with the veterinary community:

1. Timely Pregnancy Detection and Management: Learning to perform ultrasound scans enables you to swiftly detect pregnancies in your canine companions. This timely knowledge allows you to implement precise breeding management strategies, optimising mating times and ensuring the best possible care for pregnant dogs.
2. Enhanced Reproductive Planning: Understanding the reproductive cycle and monitoring pregnancies with ultrasound empowers you to plan and prepare for whelping more effectively. By accurately predicting whelping dates, you can be better prepared for the arrival of new litters.
3. Proactive Health Monitoring for Pregnant Dogs: Regular ultrasound examinations throughout gestation enable you to monitor the health and development of the embryos and the well-being of pregnant dogs. Early detection of any potential complications or health issues ensures timely veterinary intervention, fostering better welfare for the breeding bitch and her offspring.
4. Cost-Effective and Efficient Breeding Practices: Proficient ultrasound scanning skills enable you to conduct in-house examinations, minimizing the need for frequent veterinary visits. This cost-effective approach grants you greater control over your breeding program, leading to more efficient breeding practices.
5. Empowerment and Recognition: Acquiring ultrasound scanning expertise enhances your proficiency as a dog breeder, earning recognition within the breeding community for your dedication to responsible breeding practices. This sense of empowerment allows you to make informed decisions and become a respected authority in your field.
6. Strengthening Ties with Veterinarians: Proficiency in ultrasound scanning can lead to closer collaboration with the veterinary community. Veterinary professionals value dog breeders who are knowledgeable in reproductive care, as it fosters better communication and understanding between breeders and veterinarians.
7. Collaborative Care and Support: By understanding ultrasound scans, you can work closely with veterinarians to provide comprehensive care for your dogs. A collaborative approach ensures the well-being of your breeding animals and strengthens the overall support network within the canine breeding community.

"Everyone thoroughly enjoyed their day and i feel if breeders are buying scanners they need to attend something like this to gain a further understanding of basics regarding anatomy of the bitch and ultrasound basics. I felt Stephen was excellent he didn't baffle us with hard to understand terminology and answered questions clearly in a manner we could all understand." - Sharon Pearce.

"Would like to say I went on the ultra sound scanning day in Maidstone and I found it very educational and I asked loads of questions. I learnt so much I highly recommend it" - Lisa Smith.

"LOVED IT!!!!! A brilliant day and I really learnt a lot!" - Julia

"I am a veterinary surgeon from West Sussex who was looking to purchase a scanner from VIS and to also attended the Level 1 scanning course. Although already familiar with ultrasound scanners, I though it would be refreshing to have some training in a relaxed and pressure free environment where I could freshen up on the basics and gain more confidence."

" This is a fantastic course whether you have previous scanning experience or whether you have yet to even hold a probe. Everyone who attended the course that I was with had no previous experience at all....yet by the end of the day, everyone in the room could confidently identify not only a pregnancy, but also the liver, spleen, kidneys and intestines with confidence. They were also able to identify things such as a pyometra-one of the most life endangering conditions associated with intact bitches. The Staff were all amazing and took great care to ensure that each individual on the course felt comfortable enough to ask any questions they had- something you don't always get on training days."

"I found all of the scanners to be extremely good!!! I even came away with one for my veterinary practice. That gives you an idea of how good I thought the VIS equipment was. Very good value for money in my opinion."

"So whether you are a complete scanning novice or perhaps a vet nurse or surgeon, this course can offer you confidence in the basics and will definitely have you identifying pregnancy or lack of with confidence."

"I look forward to attending the Level 2 course. Thankyou VIS for a fab day!" - Maria Wood
