He has been on Tylosin for a bacterial overgrowth in his lower bowl. All better now. However, we tried to A-I him to my VERY READY bitch and no sperm. Get's erection and pulses for over 20 minutes of clear fluid. In doing this also noticed that his testicles are about 1/2 the size they should be. He produced a litter supposedly from a natural breeding about a year ago. Last time I tried to A-I him we had a lot of volume but not so much sperm. However what was there , was active. That would have been about 6 months ago. Had 2 puppies. Any thought's on why this happened or if there is anything that can be done?
