![]() Here are some of testimonials we at The Ovulation Pads have received. ![]() Hi Karen just wanted to let you know that my bitch is well in whelp. She had only one pup previously on her first litter, I used the test strip as soon as I got them on day 4 which changed colour pretty quick. I emailed you some pics , you was sure she was ovulating so mated on day 6 and voila. She's got another 2.5 weeks to go and already is a good size , so probs a nice size litter, always a bonus with pugs! Thanks for your time and just to say I'm a very happy customer . Regards Val Hayes Gillian, German Shepherds ![]() thanks so much for the ovulation test pads. As you can see we got a healthy litter of 10 German Shepherd Pups ( aged 6 weeks in the photo) after two previous failed attempts. We had always put Freja to the stud from 12-14 days as advised by our vet, and she certainly stood for him every time. This time we used the pads, and saw that it was in fact day 17 when she ovulated, so we raced to the stud again ( over on to an island with two long drives and a boat) and crossed our fingers. We intend to breed her again in a couple of seasons time so will certainly use them again. I have passed my unused ones this time to the Stud dog owner who is travelling to the continent to do a mating so has to be bang on with timing-hope she has the same success. I don't often write testimonials but I am convinced that without these we would not have our bundles of joy with us today. Best wishes Gillian and the LilleUlv German Shepherds xx Joanne Robinson Tarward Brittanys and Whippet ![]() Please find attached photos showing successful mating !!!! Missed the first time as she was not really co-operative so thought she wasn't ready. However your pads proved the next time that she was. We mated her on day 11 and hey presto. Whippet Puppies at 10 days old. Best wishes Joanne Robinson Tarward Brittanys and Whippets Tony and Helen, Border terriers ![]() Just a quick email to let you know how pleased we are with ovulation pads. We have never bred from our bitch before and could not believe how simple the pads are to use and the results were clear to read. For a first time breeder we were extremely happy with the product. After nine weeks from our first cover we are the proud owners of four Border Terrier puppies two boys and two girls that are growing extremely fast. Kind regards Tony and Helen Adrian and Jeff Miniature Schnauzers ![]() This is all your fault, but we thank-you Your ovulation strips certainly worked, and we have seven little Minature Schnauzers in our life; this was our Minnie's first litter so quite a shock for all of us. We have had to assist in the rearing of two of them but they are now thriving after four weeks of intense care from us. Thought you might like the pics; the first one is day one, and the second was day 27. All the best Adrian, Jeff and Minnie Elizabeth Sampson ![]() As my second litter of puppies involved the use of an outside stud dog, not my own, it seemed more important to be accurate with the timing and so I invested in a pack of Karen's ovulation pads having done a lot of internet research, watched the videos and discovered horrendous prices for progesterone tests with my vet. However, I was still a little sceptical! From observation of Sally during previous seasons I thought that she ovulated around day 11 to 13 and so when the pads showed that she had ovulated on day 5, I was extremely surprised. On the strength of this we mated her on day 7, but still thinking this was rather early, repeated the matings on days 9 and 11. Her four week scan showed a pregnancy consistent with the first mating. We had a wonderful litter of 12 healthy puppies, one of whom we have kept. Had we delayed, we might well have failed. I shall be using the pads again for future litters with a great deal more confidence than I did on the first occasion! Beighleigh Dinah ![]() Here is Beighleigh Dinah Of Bizarte and her six beagle puppies born 23rd June. We used the Ovulation pads to detect time to take her to an unproven Stud Dog we had located. The pads stayed pink for a day or two then Hey Presto the purple tinge emerged so off we went the following day! The 1st Mating took place the day after and here is the result! We have another litter too and one due this week!!!!! Incidentally The Stud Dog had previously been visited by two other bitches who were not tested and 'failed'! to conceive-- these pads are our saviour!!! Thank you! Anyone seriously considering producing a litter from their bitch is foolhardy not to use these pads. ![]() Hi Daisy had 9 Golden retriever pups after using the pads. This is her 1st litter & we are pleased with the success. My friend has also used the pads & has a litter due in 2 weeks. Di Rose Azteca golden Retrievers ![]() Hi I just wanted to thank you my French Bulldog fell pregnant after using your ovulation pads. I have attached a photo, this is my first litter so it made the planning much easier. Kind Regards Kirsty Sue, German Shepherds Hi Karen, ![]() I go on my strips and they have always been 100% accurate and have always given me puppies our puppies are very clever but I thought you would like to see one that was a result of the strips shes called braysuz blackberry and is now training in the Czech republic as a rescue dog. Many thanks Karen for still doing the strips and also for doing the offers on them i will be back when my supply runs out again sue Kindest regards Sue www.suesgermanshepherds.co.uk ![]() Hi Karen, My fabulous, wonderful, noisy little puppy gang arrived on Monday, as I say I thank you for your ovulation pads which helped to make this possible! Here are some pics as promised! Kindest regards Jackie Chambers Dian I ![]() During the Purple faze Buffe mated. Not long after that my Miniature Dachshund Tinkerbell came into season I tested her using the pads on day 5 and the centre stayed Pink with some Purple dotting along one side, I tested her again on day 7 and the pad was Purple that evening she was found in the kitchen mating with my stud dog Alfie. My daughter breeds Pugs and received a call from a lady who wants to use her stud dog, my daughter told her about the pads and suggested she buy some to test her bitch before bringing her, the lady contacted my daughter this afternoon to say she had done the test and the stick was turning Purple so has arranged to bring her bitch this Thursday morning for the mating. This same daughter has one of her pugs in season and has been using the sticks for a few days now each one has stayed Pink until this afternoon and one corner turned Purple so she will carry on testing each day to see what happens. I just wanted to say as a breeder how impressed I am to have found your website site and your little test kit. In fact I am just about to order the 3rd pack. Regards Dian Miss Parkhouse from Devon ![]() just a quick email 2 say your pads really work after 2 years of trying i had no luck with my staffordshire bull terrier bitch until a breeder recommended your ovulation pads, so i ordered some and started testing as early as day 1 on her 13th day she was ready so i used my own stud dog and again 48 hrs after then it was the longest 30 days of my life i took her for her scan and she was pregnant vet said 4 possible 6 well 63 days down the line and i have a healthy litter of 7 . Thanks again i have recommended your pads to a friend. ive enclosed a picture of the magnificent 7. Sara Pug Twigg ![]() My little darlings arrived Thursday 15th of Sept we have 3 girls and 1 boy, she self whelped the litter and mum and babies are doing great, thanks to your ovulation pads....... Please find pics attached and don't forget to send me some bits to pop in the puppy packs for the new owners, Love Sara Pug Twigg xxx Wendy & Nick Jones,Chelynnah Whippets ![]() I just thought I’d send you a quick note to say we have had success with the pads. We took them with us in June/July to Sweden when we took our whippet to be bred. Not being near enough for regular testing we figured it was good to have something with us as a fallback. I had a funny result on the first one and you were really helpful when I emailed you, and after that we tested a couple more days. We got a small purple spot on the same day that her discharge changed colour, and another one the next morning. I didn’t bother to re-test as it was really uncomfortable for her (and I was nervous about catching her with the corners), so I don’t know if the whole pad would have changed or not, but since the pad changed at the same time the other signs did we went ahead and bred 48 hours after the first change of colour for both pad and discharge, and then another 48 hours later. My girl (who can be quite shy) was very nonchalant about the whole deal, and wasn’t bothered by being bred at all, so that was kind of the third sign that she was definitely ready. 2 weeks ago we went for an ultrasound and they discovered puppies. They’re only willing to commit to 4, but suspect there’s more and it could be a larger size litter. 2 weeks on and she’s very definitely pregnant. I thought I’d share the scans with you (I believe it’s actually several screenshots of the same pup, not 5 different pups), and when she has the litter I will also send you a pic. Thanks so much. It was so nice to have a secondary test rather than just playing by ear – and something that confirmed the signs we were seeing were correct. I’ll keep you posted. Wendy www.chelynnah.co.uk Ann Mynard,Andridz Boston Terriers ![]() my name is Ann Mynard of the Andridz Boston Terriers. Having previously used the pads last year, once as an experiment without mating. I then used them on a bitch that i actually mated. I took her 3 days after the change in colour, I would have preferred 2 days, but the stud dog owner wasn't around, by this time she was 17 days in season. On first look the stud owner asked had she gone over, I replied no. Anyway we had a successful mating with a 20 minute tie. Resulting in 59 days later a litter of 6 healthy puppies. In February this year, I ordered some more, as I had planned a mating to take place in France. While staying at a friends house in France, the pads helped me to plan the trip 400 miles away to the stud dog of my choice. Two days after the change in colour we arrived at the home of the stud dog. Resulting in a good mating and 63days later a litter of 4, 2x girls, 2xboys. I 'm sure without the help of the pads, this mating taking place would have been so much harder, regarding the timeing, of when my bitch would have been ready for mating. They helped to take away, that is she or isn't she ready element of the whole process. I certainly wouldn't hesitate to recommend them to all my fellow dog breeders. Thanks Karen for all your information regarding the pads. Ann Mynard. Tony and Helen, Border Terrier ![]()

Ian and Jane, Rottweilers HI KAREN, ![]() SHE WAS INTERESTED BUT THE PROVEN STUD WAS NOT. THEN ON DAY 18 THE OVULATION PAD SHOWED BLACK MARKS, JUST AS DESCRIBED ON YOUR SITE, LATER THAT DAY SUCCESS…..THEN 62 DAYS LATER MORE SUCCESS!..... THANKS FOR THE QUICK DELIVERY OF THE PADS . REGARDS IAN & JANE Ewa Larsson, Britisher Show Bulldogs Hello Karen, ![]() I was not sure of the result's so I have mailed you the photo's and with your help and expertise you told me exactly when my Girl ovulated and when was best to mate her. I followed your advice as you know and here are our wonderful puppies Sired by Britisher Union Jack . We are so pleased with such a wonderful litter, Mum and Pups doing just great. The Pads are so easy to use and thank you for your personal support and experience, you put my mind at rest and made everything much easier for us. Thank you Ewa www.britisher.co.uk Ted Jones, Smooth Dachshunds Monday 4.00 pm Dear Karen, ![]() They were born on 29th January and Dotty’s is the first litter of five puppies we have had for several years now. Mother and family all doing well so far and I thought that you might like to see their pictures. I recommended the pads to a friend, Mrs Barbara Bartlett, who also in min smooth dachs as the stud dog she wants to use means an even longer journey than Dotty’s was. I am hoping that her trial is as successful as mine was. Yours sincerely, Ted Jones Amanda, Triarder Bulldogs ![]() I used them last time and we have just had 6 pups born on Monday hooray! This bitch had been mated 3 times before and had no pups using Idexx !! I used the strips this time and my own dog at home and we have these gorgeous babies !! Maybe she only likes her boyfriend at home !! Not strangers LOL ;o) as when I used them last time only a spot changed colour I was happy, with the readings this time but now as the colour change so dark I was certain. . Take care Amanda. www.triarderbulldogs.com ![]() Hi Karen Sorry it has taken me this long to send you a pic of mum and pups but it was a hectic year for me last year with health problems within the family. Kat only had 3 puppies but the pads do work as I used them and nothing else. The pups were born 26/03/2010. Best regards Andria. www.mazannahgsd.co.uk Suzan Hi Karen, ![]() At first the pad did not change ,when it did a day or two later (testing twice daily),hey presto, there was a purple tinge around the edge. She was happy to be covered and here is the result. Only twice because her mum Pru delivered eight pups a week before, so SIXTEEN pups all doing really well. Because of the testing, you can cover when necessary and be assured You did not MISS it, which I know can happen. These Pads are super and take away the risk of not conceiving. (What a waste of time and money) I shall always use this product( I have tried others)! Even the saliva test did not work before!. With Kind Regards and Thank you Susan Bizarte beagles Carrie Spurgeon Hello Karen, ![]() Saying we are thrilled is a complete understatement; thank you so much for your pads!!! We had put our English Springer Spaniel, Luna, to stud at the beginning of the year but had no pups, so when she came into season again I was very concerned it would happen again! After searching the internet I found the ovulation pads. I ordered them and they arrived the very next day! The first time I used them on her she was confused to say the least but we immediately gave her a treat and after that she was quite happy to let me use them, they didn't cause her any concern at all! With them we were able to pinpoint exactly the day she ovulated (on the day of ovulation the pads turned a really dark purple, you honestly can't miss it, and we mated her the day after (by the way the pads had turned back to red then as the colour change was literally just one day). The stud refused to do his job (presumably because the eggs were not ripe) so we took her back the next day and we immediately got an excellent mating and tie! I took her back the next day but again he wasn't interested. Nine weeks later and the pups were born! I even predicted the day they were due by using your pads as almost all pups are born 63 days from ovulation; how amazing was that! Ovulation was Thursday 30th September and pups were born Thursday 2nd December! I must admit to taking her for an ovulation test at the vets the day before your pad changed colour as I was getting twitchy, and when it came back they said that hormones were on the rise and to retest in 2 days! I didn't bother to go back as the pads had convinced me of ovulation and that was the day I was taking her to the stud for the first time, the test was actually a total waste of £45! I will definitely use your pads again and would highly recommend them to anyone!! Without them we wouldn't now have 9 bundles of joy!!! Oh, another interesting fact is that we had 8 boys and 1 girl and after research I have found that the nearer the eggs are to being ripe when mated, the more likely you are to have boys, as male sperm are faster but die quicker. If we mate from her again I am going to try and get them to mate on the day of ovulation, if I can, to see if the slower but longer living female sperm, can fertilise the eggs easier and therefore get more girls. When working I was a cytologist so this sort of thing fascinates me lol; I just can't help myself :o) Thank you so much again for your help!! Carrie x BARBARA BANYARD ![]() We have a litter , 5 weeks old today. The dam had a split season and had missed to an outside stud dog last time. We used our own dog and the ovulation pads which indicated a split season and it worked! Will see what I have left, and probably order more. Regards Barbara. LINDA MILLS, SOMYWAY/LINDAMOLE BULLDOGS Hello Karen, Both my Sister and I have used you pads successfully, we have both had litters and are so pleased that your pads are so easy to use and so much cheaper than the blood tests! I have enclosed a photo of my puppies for you. Thanks again. Linda Mills SOMYWAY BULLDOGS LINDAMOLE BULLDOGS WENDY WALKER, ENGLISH SPRINGERS ![]() Babies arrived, nearly a week early. Just as well I was ready for them, even they took me by surprise!! Mum and 4 baby boys doing well!! Wendy W. Dexbenella English Springers www.dexbenella.com MONICA GREENWOOD, PETMON SCOTTIES Hi Karen, ![]() Mated Amber on the 2nd May, 2nd day of ovulation. Had 2 scans done at 30 and 32 days which both said no puppies. Took Amber back to the vet 10 days later as she just wasn't herself and had discharge from her back end. Vet swabbed her for Canine herpes and Brucella Canis, and then Scanned her again as she could feel fluid in her uterus. Low and behold Amber had hidden a puppy behind her left kidney! Magic was delivered by C section as he was a singleton Amber wouldn't go into labour. Amber didn't fertilize the egg until 4 days after mating. I am glad this is her last litter as I know Scotties are stubborn and do things their way but this is ridiculous. Monica Greenwood Petmon Scotties. MARGARET KIRKHAM, MOONSTONE CAVALIERS Hi Karen, Just to let you know, I ordered and received some ovulation pads from you as my cavalier bitch had come into season and I did not know when. She also has a part silent season at the prime time so you never know when she is ready without taking her to the vet. I received the pads on the Thursday morning and tested her that evening, the pads immediately changed colour so I organised the stud dog for the next evening, obviously I tested her just in time. We had a good mating and she is in whelp she is due her puppies on 28th August. Thank you very much for bringing this product on the market. I have told all my friends and have also linked you to my website. I will also be using the pads to check any bitches that come to my stud dogs. Thanks once again. Margaret Kirkham My own Story by KAREN - MAVERICK BULLDOGS ![]() See, even me after all these years still feel what some of you go through when our bitches come into season! I was staying with family up North and I almost forgot to test her, I remembered just before we went for a walk, a quick test and BINGO! The pad turned black immediately! So there I was "up North" My stud was down South! But I knew I still had 4 days to get everything arranged, the joy of having the pads, I could plan everything! And I did from the phone in the car on the way home! We mated 2nd say after Ovulation and again 48 hours later. I really did not need to mate on the second mating, she definitely took on the first mating and had the puppies at day 62, the timing and the first mating were perfect. However, just in case, I did the same as we all do, covered all bases! LOL! So here are my 5 wonderful Champion Sired Bulldog Puppies, 4 girls and 1 boy, we are over the moon and hopefully keeping two girls for the Show Ring... So why use anything else? No taking your healthy bitch to the Vet, test easily at home with easy to read results, on line and telephone support always available, and very cost effective! Karen. JANE SARTORIS ![]() I purchased your ovulation pads for my Bullmastiff and have spoken to you several times on the telephone where you gave me very much appreciated advice. I contacted you just after my girl successfully had 10 beautiful pups. Her first litter and mine!! They are now 17 days old and doing well. Please see attached photos. Once again thanks for all your help and advice. It hasn't put me off breeding so hopefully will speak to you in the future. Regards Jane Sartoris EDDIE, ATAFFORDSHIRE BULL TERRIERS Hi Karen Ovulation Test Pads. ![]() So I scan the website forum and come across someone that had had the same problem as us! They had tried OVULATION PADS, & had a litter of puppies, so I got the website read information & watched the video! Bought my Ovulation pads which are good value for money. So now the wait for her to come into season. Stud dog ready I was ready with my pads then the day came blood. Right OVUALTION PAD I tested her from day 1 then day 9 we notice change in colour of the Ovualtion pad, but for piece of mind I test her about approxuimately half to hour later the same result, so I called the stud dog. Took our bitch, done all the usual stuff still testing upto the next mating 48 hours test still good! Then it was the longest wait & wait, she showed all the signs of be pregnant but we had been here before (phantoms) but no movement from puppies/pup. We did not want to have her scanned as we wanted to keep any stress to miminal, so our vet gave her the hands on it again it seem ages & under his breath said that he could feel something but couldnt feel movement! All things going through our minds, then 10 days before her whelping date we saw movement puppies/pup it was great to see, our bitch has had 3 strong healthy puppies, 11 days old & all still doing well. We have read the testimonials, seen pictures that other people who have had similar problems to us and used the Ovulation pads. The proof is their puppies, as we have now! 3 Lovely puppies! Just like to thank Karen for her help and good advice with for Ovulation pads . Eddie. ![]() Hello again Karen, I just wanted to say what a fantastic product the Ovulation Test Strips are! We now have confirmed by the scans today both Beagle bitches in pup! Their last season they both missed, obviously my fault and I was suspecting the Stud (Ours) was Infertile so how delighted are we that he is not and that we purchased these pads from you. They perform exactly as you say and gives clear colour change when ovulation is taking place. I shall continue to purchase these and shall mention you on my web site www.Bizartebeagles.co.uk. Please find a photo enclosed and feel free to use this testimonial on yours. With Best Wishes Susan Carman ![]() Hi I just wanted to say thank you for the ovulation strips. This is the first time I used anything like it and my first time trying to get my Miniature Poodle matted, I used them around day 9 and carried on until day 12 when the colour changed. I have just had her scanned and she is pregnant and carrying 5 puppies......................... I know I wouldn't have had the right day without the pads and wanted to say I would defiantly used them again and highly recommend them to my friends. I've attached a picture of my poodle for you. Best Regards Val ![]() Here are some new photo's from Sue Kidd. This is her 2nd litter from using the Ovulation pads (see previous photo and testimonial below). Thank you Sue, lovely litter photo's and thank you for passing the pads around to your friends for us. SUE KIDD ![]() Karen I would like to thank you for the ovulation tabs they were a complete success. I spent £120 last year on pre mate blood tests with no success I used 5 of your tabs this year and got 9 pups. I have recommended your tabs to other breeders and cant recommend them strongly enough. Sue Kidd. WENDY WALKERR, ENGLISH SPRINGERS ![]() I’ve got a litter due tomorrow week, once the birth is over (which I always worry about) I’m in heaven. I have used your ovi-pads for the last three matings and each time have arrived at the stud dog at exactly the right time. So THANKS for a super product. Twice I have used them alongside a vet’s pre-mate test as a double check. But I will save my money in future and just use your pads. Brilliant product. www.dexbenella.com LIS CARDIGAN, MINATURE SCHNAUZER ![]() Tizzy our miniature Schnauzer had her puppies on Friday 14th May.

I lost one little boy in the litter, but all the others where strong and healthy. Your pads are brilliant and I have told everyone about them, and will be using them myself again. Thank you and take care. Vicky. ![]() Hi Karen Those pads worked just great, much better then spending all that money on blood tests. My Jordan had seven pups, unfortunately lost three at birth but mother and the remaining four are doing just great.

I have had my fair share of unsuccessful matings - one year two of my girls were mated twice each over two seasons (8 matings between them), coupled with expensive Vet's Pre-mate tests and still no puppies. Then I tried your test sticks and after getting the hang of reading the results - both my girls got pregnant immediately. I was over the moon ! One had 5 puppies and the other had 4 puppies (one of which I kept - a ruby girl called Tess - who has just had her first litter of 5 puppies at the age of 2yrs). - see picture attached. Thank you once again and I wish you a very happy Christmas and new year. I am going to have a busy but wonderfully enjoyable Christmas with my babies before they go to their new homes in January.

Once again I cannot thank you enough for your fantastic product ( Ovulation pads ). Keep up the fantastic work you are doing helping people like myself. Best Wishes Peggy ( Stockport ) ![]() Having tried several methods of determining when my bitch was ovulating, from blood tests to swab tests and none seem to get the correct day, I decided to use the Ovulation Pads when my bitch came in season. It took some getting used to reading the pads, but with plenty of help from Karen I was able to determine the correct reading and although I was sceptical my girl was ready for mating two days after the pads went dark. She went on to have 6 pups and they were all good birth weights and went on thrive and turn into gorgeous puppies. I would definatelly use these Pads next time as I feel they are a great help in determining the time of ovulation for the bitch, and when a long journey is required to the stud dog it is a big help. Maybe it would be a good idea to have a colour stick in with the Pads so users can compare the colourings on the Colour Stick to the Pads change of colour to help determine the reading ??? Thanks for all your help and advice Karen. Penny xx NICKI HUGHES, CAVALIER KING CHARLES SPANIELS Dear Karen I just wanted to let you know that the ovulation pads were a big success :) ![]() {she was being taken to an outside dog} the day after we had expected her to ovulate - then late afternoon, he suddenly showed interest. The pad in the morning had been clear, but I tested her again as soon as he was interested and got a positive result - it was very reassuring to have it confirmed!! Daisy was mated 48 and 72 hours after the positive result - and we have SEVEN wonderful puppies!! A large litter for a Cavalier, but she is coping well and is a wonderful Mum. Thought you would like to see Daisy and her babies. Thank you for your wonderful pads - so much less stressful for the bitch than progesterone testing - also considerably cheaper. Wishing you well Nicki. VIVIAN CLARKSON, BOXERS ![]() I am writing to thank you for supplying the canine ovulation sticks. Although my Boxer bitch had had a litter over 3 years ago any attempt over the last 2 years to successfully mate her failed. Her first litter she was mated on her 11th and 13th day and this resulted in 7 beautiful puppies. I was beginning to think we weren't going to have any more puppies from her and indeed this was to be our final attempt. I received the sticks at the beginning of her season and tested her from the 9th day, I was surprised to see that according to the sticks she didn't ovulate until the 16th day I had the stud dog already on stand by and I had her mated on the 16th and 18th day.......................RESULT!!!!! 7 gorgeous Red and White puppies, 5 boys and 2 girls, so I would like to thank you from the bottom of my heart and tell you that I have recommended these sticks to ALL my doggie friends. I have attached photos of puppies born on 15/4/09.

The swab test, I was told did not bode well for conception but the Ovulation pad turned bright purple and we got a successful mating and tie with what was a maiden bitch. She produced eight strong, healthy puppies. We have tested the Ovulation pads on my friend's bitch and now know she is a 17 day girl. Next time she comes into season we will start testing at day ten and take her to be mated when the pads tell us she is ready. This is such a simple, helpful process and worth every penny. Judy Cartwright Luik Bouviers ![]() ALEX, BIG BULLS, GERMANY Hi Karen I just wanted to tell you that we got a litter of 8 puppies with your ovulation pads! ![]() Thanks and 1 million hugs Alex www.bigbulls.de
We are pictured here with her 8 month old puppy bitch, a direct result from the pads working. She got her first 2nd Rosette today and it was a real pleasure to meet Tania and one of her puppies... A great day had by all...We had a 1st, 2 x 2nd's and a 3rd... MARGARET KIRKHAM,CAVALIER KING CHARLES SPANIELS. Hi Karen, Just to let you know, I ordered and received some ovulation pads from you as my cavalier bitch had come into season and I did not know when. She also has a part silent season at the prime time so you never know when she is ready without taking her to the vet. I received the pads on the Thursday morning and tested her that evening, the pads immediately changed colour so I organised the stud dog for the next evening, obviously I tested her just in time. We had a good mating and she is in whelp she is due her puppies on 28th August. Thank you very much for bringing this product on the market. I have told all my friends and have also linked you to my website. I will also be using the pads to check andy bitches that come to my stud dogs. Thanks once again. Margaret Kirkham CHARLIE,WHITEWREATH KENNELS, AKITAS. Dear Karen, What can we say other than Thank you! Your help and assistance has been second to none and the pads themselves seem to work a real treat. Having a bitch that has dry / silent seasons is somewhat of a night mare LOL. By the time we notice the swelling of her vulva she is usually just about ready to be bred, which isn't too handy when we have to travel a minimum of 8 hours to get to the stud! Being sceptical I used the pads along with Vaginal swabbing done by the vet. The vaginal slide is only able to tell you when your bitch reaches the Oestrus cycle of her season, this does not mean she is or has ovulated as ovulation will occur within 2 to 3 days of being in Oestrus. We tested our bitch the day she was confirmed in Oestrus and the pads remained pink, the following day she mated with the stud dog and had a 12 minute tie, we tested the bitch 5 hours later and the pads were turning colour, indicating she was now in Ovulation. We will repeat the mating again in 48 hours and will keep our fingers tightly crossed for a positive result. It isn't just the help with the pads as a product Karen, but your help and assistance with the bitches whole season, your not just a sales woman you actually care about the dogs well-being and assist with information in any way that you can. Your a real star Karen! And a friend for life :o) Charlie xxxxxx www.ukakitas.co.uk
JENNY WELLS, SOUTH AFRICA The tests appear to be a huge advantage to anyone wanting to breed their dog, whether novice or experienced breeder, it takes the guesswork and mystery out of the process and allows time for planning. The other big benefit is in the calculation of pregnancy length, as it has never been able to be calculated accurately by mating day(s). This could be a factor in saving the lives of not only the puppies but the Mother too if a caesarian section is necessary. This is a product that we will look back on in years to come and wonder how we ever managed without it! Thanks again for you excellent service, my latest litter is due in 5 weeks (exactly)! Please feel free to use any of my emails as testimonials for your product. It sure works for me! I can't wait to try the pregnancy testing! Kind regards Jenny, South Africa

N & G HELT HANSEN Hello I wish to inform you, that I have been VERY pleased with your ovulations pads. I live in Denmark, and the mating should take place in Sweden.

LYNDSAY MANN, BODERPRIDE BORDER COLLIES Hi Karen I've just placed a new order with you for some more pad's after a great success the first time last summer :o) The first set of pad's arrived bang on time as the first one I did on arrival showed an immediate change, one I may have missed without the pad's as the bitch was still very early on in her season & telling my male where to go!! A very successful mating 2 day's later resulted in 6 gorgeous puppies :o) I'll now always use the pad's!! I've set the order to go to my friend who the bitch lives with (joint ownership) as although she has some pad's that I gave her, I don't want her to run out (the bitch is having a funny season!). Many thanks :o) Lyndsay, Borderpride Border Collies www.borderpride.com JUDY SPOONER, AUDAXUS ROTTWEILER " Still singing the praises of these pads ......" Hi Karen Hello, I've just ordered some more pads from you. My young Rottie bitch is due in season any time now and as the stud dog is a long ride away - so we have to be sure she's ready for mating before setting off. I've used your pads with both my Rotts and my Lancashire Heeler girls to determine optimum mating times - and they've never let me down yet. I've also sent several friends your way with their girls when they've had problems getting the girls mated at the right time. In fact, one lady (Mrs. Sue Brown) had missed with her girl several time but thanks to your pads she succeded at last - just as well as she had 7 people waiting for pups from her. Look forward to getting the pads - I know hoe efficient you are at getting them out quick. Warmest Regards, Judy Spooner Audaxus. ALLIE MACBAIN Hi I just wanted to say thank you! We have tried twice before to get matings with our bitch but was unsure when she was ovulating, a trip to the vets was out of the question as she gets very stressed! I tested her at home with the pads, and she ovulated on the Sunday/Monday (pads went straight to black)!! Mated her on the Monday and Tuesday we tried again on the Wednesday and Thursday but no luck so hopefully got the right days! We are thrilled that we got matings! She is 2 weeks in whelp (we hope) and will let you know how things progress. Allie MacBain |
