What happens when my pure breed dogs have mated and another dog got ahold of her after the fact?
Answers:
It is not uncommon for two fathers to be present in a litter. If your female is pregnant prepare yourself for the idea that you may have a mixed litter. I don't know what that does to the registerability of the litter but your puppies will probably be like half siblings and share only the mother.
Exactly what you suspect might have happened..
You could have puppies from both dogs in one litter. Please have your dog spayed so this doesn't happen again.
It's called a "mulit-sired litter". Good luck explaining that one to potential families!
As for the answer above me, for a responsible dog owner, it is not very common. Even after a successful tie, the female needs to be confined from ALL other male dogs period!
If it is litter size that concerns you, she will only produce as many pups as she had eggs whether she was bred to 1 dog or 5. If the 2nd dogs sprem is more viable, there is a chance the 1st male didn't fertilize all the eggs.
If it is due to one or both of the males being significantly larger than your female, yes, there could be complication.
Is the 2nd dog the same breed?
Some of the puppies are purebred, and some are mutts.. You have to wonder tho, why someone would breed their purebred, and then not keep a close watch on her to make sure that some other dog didn't come along and breed with her. I certainly wouldn't leave an in season female outside alone, wouldn't leave a female in season that I Had just bred outside and available to just any mutt that came along.. You should spay her.. You aren't very responsible...This type of thing just should not be happening.. If you were careful, and responsible.. You wouldn't have this problem..
You will have a litter of mutts.
I got a little dog one time that came from a litter of German Shepherds but she was small %26 not as out going as the rest of the litter. There was a coyote that got in with the Dame %26 this one little dog was given away %26 the rest of the litter was sold as pure bred German Shepherds.
I learned latter that the breeder was only registering them with AKC %26 had no pedegree papers to prove that they were pure.
AKC is a joke. I have seen AKC registered mutts. Laugh, go ahead laugh. It is true. As a Pet Groomer I saw the best %26 the worst of them. Supposed pure bred dogs with under bites, over bites, poor angulation, improper ear sets, bad teeth, horrible coats yet these dogs where registered with AKC. And they were nothing but mutts. I have seen the best of the best %26 let me tell you they are far %26 few between.
AKC papers don't mean a damned thing unless you are showing your dog %26 you would have to have the pedigree papers to prove the blood line. Most akc pups are very poor examples of any breed. You know you got a pure breed when you get the Pedigree papers %26 the registry papers. But you pay a GOOD penny for them too.
If you spent less than a thou or two you got a pet quality dog %26 the mix might look better than the parent. You won't be able to paper the pups unless you alter the papers, that is a no no but incompetent breeders do it all the time.
Here's what you do..
Get a big stick
and hit yourself in the freakin head !
You moron, why weren't you supervising your dogs?
And why are you purposely contributing to the overpopulation of dogs?
Take your dogs (both of them) to the vet and get an abortion and spay for the female and get your male neutered.
Whooooo hoooo - more ill-bred puppies. It just goes on and on - the big wheel keeps on turning - ya know?
Sweetie: if you were a responsible breeder this never would have happened. If you knew what you were doing in terms of breeding, how long a dog is in season, keeping her separated/isolated, this never would have happened. Just because your dog is registered, doesn't mean she is of breeding quality.
Please take her to the vet ASAP and have her spayed. You are not ready/prepared/knowledgeable enough about breeding to be involved with this. I am not trying to be rude, I am just being honest. Do what is best for your pets, what is best for this country (too many ill-bred dogs out there!)
Even if the puppies went to term, you would have to pay for genetic testing on all of them to determine which ones are pure-bred and which ones aren't. That alone is expensive. Not to mention, there is no guarantee that any of the dogs would end up pure-bred - it depends on which little spermies made it to those eggs. It's a crapshoot right now. Spaying is the best thing. If you are a responsible breeder, you have already lined up homes for every puppy that you created - how are you going to tell those people - welllll oopppps. And if you haven't already lined up homes, that is one more reason t o have her spayed, now. The vet will deal with terminating the pregnancy.
