Progesterone Testing Kit (Postal)
Accurate Fertility Timing Made Simple
Take the guesswork out of timing your bitch's mating with our trusted postal progesterone kit. Whether your girl has missed matings before, has an unpredictable cycle, or planning to travel to a stud, this kit helps identify the optimal fertility window with accuracy and speed.
Your vet takes the blood sample, and you post it directly to us. We run it the same day it arrives using our on-site veterinary-grade analyser — and unlike other labs, we include personalised advice with every result.
Why Use It?
- Accurately confirms ovulation
- Prevents missed fertile windows and unnecessary travel
- Reduces mating attempts and stress for both parties
- Helps estimate whelping date
What’s Included:
- Pre-packed progesterone testing kit with full instructions
- Clear guidelines for your vet
- Rapid same-day testing once received
- Tailored next-step advice based on breed, history and stud plans
Ideal for:
- Owners travelling to an external stud
- Bitches with silent or confusing seasons
- First-time breeders seeking reassurance
- Multi-dog households where seasons clash
📦 Return samples Monday to Thursday only via Royal Mail Tracked or Special Delivery.
Start testing on day 6 of the season. Most females need 2–3 tests to confirm ovulation. Please don't rely on just one test—timing is everything.
Ovulation Cytology Swab Kit (Set of 3)
Track Her Cycle with Confidence — Identify the Shift into the Fertile Phase
This at-home cytology swab kit allows you to track the cellular changes of your bitch’s season and identify when she's transitioning into her fertile window. Perfect for breeders looking to pair accurate data with physical signs, this kit offers a cost-effective, low-intervention way to monitor her hormonal shift — and is especially useful when combined with progesterone testing.
Each kit contains 3 sterile swabs, allowing you to sample over multiple days to observe changes. Cytology is based on assessing the changes in the cells lining the vaginal wall, which shift in response to rising oestrogen levels before ovulation.
Why Use It?
- Identifies the shift from proestrus to estrus
- Helps time progesterone blood draws more accurately
- Ideal for confusing or silent seasons
- Invaluable in multi-dog households or maiden bitches
What’s Included:
- 3 sterile vaginal swabs in a sealed pack
- Full step-by-step instructions and reference guide
- Expert support from the Canine Family Planner™ team
Ideal for:
- Owners unsure when to begin progesterone testing
- Bitches with irregular or silent seasons
- Those wanting a natural, low-cost monitoring method
🧪 Cytology is best started from day 6 of the season. Use 2–3 swabs over several days to monitor progress.
📝 Combine with progesterone testing for a methodical, evidence-based approach to fertility timing.
