PART THREE

WARNING: Artificial Insemination is a practice that is best left for professionals and more experienced amateurs. If preformed incorrectly it may lead to serious and uncorrectable behavior abnormalities, issues regarding dominance and excessive self-abuse. Under absolutely no circumstances are snarves or bitches, harmed or injured during AI, to be returned to their habitats; they are to be euthanized immediately. (Official Statement of the USLO)

AI and Eligible Snarves

AI is used in snovels that sell snarves to industry or that crossbreed with other snovels. It should not be used exclusively or temporarily, as an alternative to natural breeding, for it is too efficient at producing offspring. Small or even medium-sized snovels would be quickly overrun. It is a practice that is best left for professionals and more experienced amateurs and is to be avoided by the casual snovelor, especially the first-timer. The general rule of thumb for the amateur snovelor is thus: AI is to be preformed when two or more individuals of the expected liter are to be removed from the snovel for whatever purpose whatsoever.

'Mating' will be necessarily very different from what is has learned its whole life; therefore older and sexually experienced snarves are not to be used in AI. It would take too much time and effort to learn and adjust to the new roles. Younger and sexually inexperienced snarves are the preferred subjects. Virginal snarves must be chosen wisely, their character and personality must be mild and docile not aggresses and domineering. Their genitals, in particular, must not be covered with sores, bleed, or have any unusual odors for all are signs of disease and unhealthy sperm. Careful attention must be paid to the condition and length and width ratios of their testicles. [To observe snarf testicles, apply gentle pressure to the area around the anus; it will cause the gonads to poke through the skin and be visible momentarily.] (See Appendix B for more information)

The Two Methods of AI

There are two methods to the collection of semen. One uses a device called a 'prop-bitch,' the other uses direct manual stimulation of the penis. The 'prop-bitch' comes with the least risk to the snovelor and is the method preferred and recommended by the 15th Tribunal of the USLO. It is also the only method studied in depth in this part. It is left for Appendix A to discuss the manual methods in more detail.

All snarves must consider the snovelor to be the dominant or 'alpha' figure. When botched or preformed incorrectly, the processes of artificial insemination places that master-mastered relationship into conflict. For that reason the snovelor is advised not to carry out AI alone but to be accompanied by at least one able body assistant. The presence of two or more assistants during the act of semen collection reaffirms the snovelor's dominance and retains a better balance of power.

The Prop-Bitch

The prop-bitch is a device that like the black box is available in the market. Unlike the black box it was never 'home-made,' having always been the domain of professionals and only comes in one model, the Standard 37. It has the appearance of a red box with a slanted, leathery lid. The tanned padding helps support the snarves when mounting and thrusting. Restrains on the corners are provided for those snarves that orgasm too violently.

The lid rests on hinges and opens to reveal to compartments, side by side. The first is large and is used to house dung from bitches in estrus. Apertures along the upper portion of the lid transmit the scents to the outside. It is important for young snarves to be trained with fair amounts of dung placed in that compartment, it will be the only way to get it aroused and interested in the prop-bitch.

The second compartment contains a sanitized jar that serves as a flask to catch and contain the ejaculated semen and a leathery tube called a 'vagina.' The vagina must be inserted into the jar prior to use. It is corrugated with piezoelastic bands that contract out of phase with the penal throbbing of the snarves, thus simulating the physiological responses of the true vagina. Liberal amounts of water-soluble lubricants must be spread along its inner length. The vagina is attached to a hole on the lid that is itself covered with two horizontal slits of equal leathery textures.

The first few times snarves use the device their penises may have to be guided into the vagina by hand. As they become more and more used to it, their adjusting becomes more and more automatic. The most difficult part of this method is to get the snarves to thrust. In naturally breeding snarves it is the bitch that engages the thrusting, here the snovelor has to engage it. The tails must be maneuvered in to and out of the vagina with smooth and even strokes, one or two times back and forth. It quickly becomes obvious what they have to do and they take over. The snovelor can control the snarves with the leash.

It has been noted that the act of coupling with the prop-bitch takes longer than with natural breeding by ten to forty percent. It may be a function of the vagina of the prop-bitch itself - having no feedback function the snarves must rely solely on their internal sexual arousals to drive them to climax. Studies are currently still underway on the functionality of a new model prop-bitch, the Standard 38. Its aim is to cut coupling times to a minute or less. However, such a machine would undoubtedly be far more expensive than the Standard 37 and be available to professionals only.

It is important that snarves not dismount until they have completed their ejaculation so that all of the semen can be safely extracted. So therefore the snovelor must be acutely aware of the physical signs of orgasm. As earlier, with the case of natural breeding, it is indicated by a sudden ceasing of thrusting and a lengthening of the tail - the tail and body spasm at the same frequency and intensity as the penis contracts. Typically, there are five to eight spasms.

Once the act of coupling has come to an end, the snarves must be removed, cleaned and allowed to rest. The prop-bitch must be opened and the vagina squeezed so that every drop of semen collects into the flask - invariably some lubricant falls into the mix but that is all right so long as only a small portion does. The jar's contents are emptied into beakers that are entered into a centrifuge to separate the semen's amalgam of different densities. A clear, central layer contains the sperm - it is usually collected with the aid of a vacuous capillary. The sperm are to be frozen with nitrogen at once.

The entire act, from the moment of mounting to dismounting, must be recorded in electric format. The sperm count must also be noted. Once a month a full dossier must be delivered to the local branch of the USLO where the records will be tallied and added to the main archives for future reference. (CONTROL cd code p.88, ss.5)

Manual Stimulation

The second method of AI dispenses with the prop-bitch and has, instead, devices used to stimulate the penis directly. It takes less time to perform but is more risky. The snovelor must stand behind the snarves so that only the hands touch the penises. It is also easier to control the snarves during the process while behind than while in front. Grips must be more forceful so that there be no issues about domination. Once started, manual stimulation cannot be stopped until ejaculation.

The different methods have different techniques for stimulation but all have one thing in common. Careful attention must be paid to identify the moment of climax. Indeed, it is even more important here than in the prop-bitch method to note when climax is inevitable. Either the snovelor is quick to grab the jar or an assistant is ready with it just as ejaculation starts. The jar must be placed such that the tips of the penises are well within its rim. The penises must be held down at a forty-degree angle and the snarves must be strictly restrained so that the semen does not miss the jar.

Timing orgasms is something that must be worked out on each snarf individually until the snovelor is intimately familiar with all of the snarves' physical indication. It requires work and patience but over time the process becomes almost second nature to both the snovelor and the snarf. However, because of the number of intervening failures on the onset, manual stimulation may be quite economically unfeasible to the first-time or inexperienced snovelor.

Impregnation

Only half of a teaspoon of sperm is necessary for a successfully impregnation. No more and no less should be used. A bitch in heat is to be placed over a prop with its legs and arms spread wide and securely tight. Protective gear is unnecessary.

The vaginal canal must be opened with manual stimulation to the clitori villi. A thin metal rod is inserted into the portal until the terminus of the uterus physically stops it. Thawed sperm is placed into a syringe along with a tablespoon of deionized water. The needle of the syringe is long, plastic tube that is run along side the rod into the vaginal canal. The plunger is squeezed until its contents have passed through the needle. The empty syringe is detached first; the rod is taken out second. Degradable cotton balls are inserted into the vaginal canal to keep the fluids from leaking.

As soon as seven to ten days later the snovelor can check the success of the impregnation with the following steps. The bitch's clitori villi are stimulated to allow access to the vaginal canal. The same metal rod is inserted as earlier but if it hits an obstruction before its full length has gone through that is the usual sign that the cervix has shut and is a good indication that embryonic development has already begun.
