Different from the rules of dating, the custom in canine breeding is to bring the female to the stud for mating.
Any dog external to the breeding facility should be considered as a potentially dangerous intruder. It is therefore recommended to do the mating or insemination, one more time, in a protected room or, if none is available, at a friendly neighbor's house.
If the female must remain there a few days to ensure the doubling of the mating in 48 hours, it is then necessary to provide her with a quarter protecting her from the other candidates (beware of mismating occurring through a fence!). Take the maximum precautions to limit the risks of running away or wounds, for the bitch is at this time under the legal responsibility of the stud's owner.
In the event of the failure of natural mating, an assisted mating or an artificial insemination will be necessary.
Any "do-it-yourself" work must be avoided (spermatozoa are fragile) and the vet will require special equipment if he practices the insemination in this room (an incubator at 37°C-98 F. to take cone samples, a microscope with heating stages to control the semen and all the other tools mentioned in the chapter dedicated to reproduction).
