14┃ Q&A: Special Guest, Jodi!
About this episode
Are pig rails truly essential or just outdated advice? Unsure whether elective C-sections are being overused or when it’s safe to leave a litter overnight?
In this Q&A episode, Sara and Isobel are joined by Jo from Northwest Breeding Services to unpack some of the most debated topics in dog breeding today, offering honest opinions, diverse perspectives, and no sugarcoating.
From paddling pools serving as whelping boxes to the risks of taking advice out of context online, this episode serves as a reminder that responsible breeding is never one-size-fits-all.
For guidance tailored to your breed, background, and breeding mindset, join the Brew Crew and surround yourself with breeders who truly understand that context is everything.
