Question

Do dogs have to tie in order for the female dog can get pregnant??

Answer 1

I've never, ever witnessed a pregnancy occurring without a tie.  I've pulled many a male off a female before the tie took place, never with a pregnancy resulting.  I guess it could be possible; I just don't see how. Ejaculation doesn't normally occur without a tie.

Answer 2

No, its called a slip mating.

Answer 3

It's possible but not likely, since the male probably slipped out before he could ejaculate. This is one of many questions you should know BEFORE you try to breed your dog(s.) A full list also includes:

What special diet should the ***** be fed while in season, and while pregnant?

What are the signs of infection in the *****?

Plus many more! If you don't know the answers to any of these questions or any of the questions in the link below, then you need to find a mentor and cease any breeding attempts - not knowing some of these questions could mean death for your b*tch and/or pups.

Answer 4

Yes it should have all of it's shoes tied, shirt tucked in, hair combed and look nice first.  

Answer 5

No. Most breeders prefer to witness a tie as it has greater success rates for breeding purposes, but it is not necessary for dogs to tie in order for the female to get pregnant.

I'll leave out how you should spay or neuter your dog or yada yada, 'cause I'm sure someone else will bring that up.
