Re: Expecting and Working....Yes or No???

There is NO reason not to continue working a bitch after she is bred. The embryos do not even implant until 21 days, (week 3, the end of their first trimester) so there is no possible harm that could be done to a cell sack floating in space, not rapidly dividing/growing.

I have worked my bitches though their pregnancies, just as I worked myself though mine. I have trialed them in agility up to 5wks pregnant.
