Instructions
Introduce the male and female Doberman Pinschers you intend to mate in a quiet environment separate from other pets once the female is in heat. Females usually go into heat every six months beginning at around six months of age.
Monitor the Dobermans as they interact; not all Dobermans will get along initially.
Monitor the dogs as they mate. Male and female Dobermans may become locked together for fifteen or twenty minutes after mating. Do not attempt to unlock them. During this time they may behave playfully towards each other.
Separate the dogs once they are finished mating. Pregnant females must be kept away from non neutered male dogs.
Take your Doberman to the vet to confirm it is pregnant. Schedule regular visits with the veterinarian to monitor the pregnancy.
Give your pregnant Doberman Pinscher a safe, quiet place to lie; pregnant dogs spend much of their time lying on their sides. Provide warm blankets and create a comfortable whelping nest for your dog.
Call your veterinarian when your Doberman Pinscher begins to show signs of going into labor. Unless you are a professional or practiced breeder, to not attempt to birth your Doberman's puppies yourself.
