Canine Cryobank achieves 100% Success RatewithFrozen Semen,Three times in 12 months The Early Years

Canine Cryobank was started in 1981 by myself, Carol Bardwick,andSteve Broder, a young cryobiologist, in Los Angeles. Asmallcompany, we always surprised ourselves and others. Whenrecentcanine semen companies talk about the millions of dollarsspent inresearch to develop their extenders and techniques, Steveand Iremember our first visit with the American KennelClubrepresentatives. Their mouths dropped when we told them wehadspent three months and US$300 in research cost for ourfirstlitter. AKC had funded researchers with thousands of dollarsforfrozen semen research and was led to believe the procedureswereexpensive, complicated, and the technology secret. SixCardiganCorgis were born from our first insemination done by Dr.RichardMartin in West Los Angeles.

Canine frozen semen was being pooh-poohed at theTheriogenologymeeting in Denver in 1984. At that time we had a 100%conceptionrate. I was intimidated by all the learned academicssaying frozensemen didn't work and didn't say anything! But, I'llnever forget aveterinarian in the audience and telling theprofessor, who hadjust announced poor conception rates at herinstitution, "Gee, Ijust had a frozen semen litter with frozensemen from CanineCryobank and I never handled the stuffbefore!"

The litters keep arriving, no progesterone testing orsurgicalinseminations in those days...

After the first litter, we shipped semen seven times and hadsixlitters. All litters were produced by veterinarians usingwhateverartificial insemination method they happened to know. Backthen,the only training we offered was one page of writtenthawinstructions. Those were the days before progesterone testingandsurgical inseminations. Now, of course, we have a videotapeonartificial insemination equipment. In our clinic, we nowplacesemen in the oviducts in a non-surgical procedure, dosurgicalinseminations, and us the "old method," intervaginalinseminations.Canine Cryobank, Inc. purposefully developed itsFreeze/Thawprocess and services so that a private practiceveterinarian maysuccessfully inseminate with thawed semen.

After realizing that we couldn't do it alone,we found areproductionspecialist
Steve and I realized during the first year of operation thatcaninefrozen semen was not going to be the multi-million dollarbusinessthat human sperm banking is today. First, dog people want acertainstud and nothing can dissuade them to switch dogs. Dogowners areconcerned about inheritable genetic disease andphenotype. Peoplegoing to a human sperm bank never ask about thegenetic makeup ofthe sperm besides hair color, height, and race.They do often askif the donor was a student in a professionaldiscipline. Dog ownerswill decide on a particular stud and moveheaven and earth to breedto that dog!

The other reason custom semen banking for dogs would alwaysbelimited: Not enough semen was capable of withstandingtheprocessing. The incidence of infertility was dramatic inpurebreddogs and we had no way of helping those dogs. We neededareproduction specialist.

In 1984 after finding out there were very few smallanimalreproduction specialists, we convinced Priscilla Stockner tomoveto California and start her specialty practice in conjunctionwiththe sperm bank. She was uniquely qualified for ourgrowingbusiness. Besides her veterinary degree, Priscilla had aMasters inReproductive Physiology and an MBA. And, just asimportant as herresearch and academic background, she had been anactive dogenthusiast, raising, showing and hunting severalbreeds.

Other veterinarians became licensees including one from EuropeandJapan
Priscilla wanted to educate other veterinarians inreproductionprotocols for the serious breeder and fancier. She andI traveledall over the world lecturing on small animal reproductionfor thepractitioner.
