The reason we request Baytril is because it is the drug of choice for Mycoplasma. My preference would be a good vet exam prior to the breeding and a closed hood culture. That way the vet could also do a visual check for herpes. My girls have taken the Baytril without any side effects, and we have bitches here who have taken it also uneventfully, but as with any antibiotic, I am sure that some dogs would react to it. If that was the case, then we would take the vet's advice on it. You guys all know that we are fairly new to this, and sort of learning as we go. Just muddling our way through this whole thing. Trying to protect our boy. He is fully tested, two in January and has seven year old heart clear parents. And, yes. There are hard copies that his parents are cardiology cleared. So, we are torn between wanting to let other people use him because fully tested boys are rare, and fully tested boys with seven year old heart cleared parents are even more rare....and wanting to keep him just for our own use for our own girls. Please don't ever take anything I say as gospel. I feel like we are open to suggestions and have millions of things to learn. Myra Savant
