Luna - Reproductive Assistance

Luna, a four-year-old German shepherd, came into Angel’s Care Animal Hospital to consult with Dr. Hah about receiving medical assistance in helping Luna to have puppies. Dr. Hah is one of the few doctors in the Inland Empire that specializes in animal reproduction. Dr. Hah has over 20 years’ experience in this field. Dr. Hah preformed a through examination of Luna to determine the optimum time for her breeding. Dr. Hah collected the sperm from the male dog and artificially inseminated Luna twice with one day between inseminations. At the 28th day after the final insemination an ultrasound was preformed and concluded that Luna was definitely pregnant with multiple puppies.

On November 20, Luna successfully delivered 3 puppies on her own, and 5 more puppies with Dr. Hah’s help via a C-section. This is a tremendous and joyful story of bringing new lives out to the world.
