No, he did neglect to tell you, but it may have been on the discharge papers.
You can have your female safely spayed during the first 3 weeks of pregnancy, and the problem is solved forever.

If your dog was fixed.. then he has had his testicles removed and as that happened in Nov then he would have been "firing blanks" in Dec and it would be impossible for him to get anything pregnant.
As your question doesn't say the female is pregnant than I am assuming that the above came into play and your concern is only about the dogs actually "doing the deed" - are they related?
Any neutered male will still copulate with a female that is in season so "fixing" them just stops the puppies happening. Fixing a female on the other hand usually removes both the ovaries and womb so as to stop her coming into season and in doing so avoid the "hygiene" problems but this also makes the dog unwilling to mate.
Your female will not be pregnant to your male and if they are related and you were concerned about that part of it... "incest" as we know it is illegal because it dramatically increases the chances of genetic abnormalities and is also why "in-breeding" (breeding closely related animals) is also severely frowned upon or even banned in some circumstances).
No your vet wasnt negligent-he castrated your dog, he is not there to read your mind and guess whether may or may not have questions. You should have discussed this before the operation and it is your responsibility to advise the vet of all the relevant circumstances and raise your concerns/issues such as "what if the female comes into season" with him before the procedure.

am i reading this right? your dog was fixed in nov. and tried to breed your intact female in dec? what expenses? did the vet know you even had a female dog? i'm sure something was on your discharge papers. but either way your male dog could not have bred a female successfully anytime after being neutered. i can't think of any vet that would find it neccessary to warn of breeding or any humping sort of activity when discharging a neuter. it would be like telling a human vasectomy patient not to have sex. i'm so lost as to what your question is i might need a map to get back~~~~~~~?

If he was neutered in November, then he cannot have got a female pregnant in December because a neetered dog has his testicles removed, therefore even though he can go through the mating with her, he cannot get her pregnant! If your girl got pregnant in December, it must have been another dog who is the father?

Possibly should have told you it might happen, but you'd probably have a difficult time making the vet responsible for any bills. After all, it is our responsibility as pet owners to make be informed about such issues.

If you read the discharge papers, I think you'll find it written that it will take a month for all the sperm to be gone. So the vet probably isn't responsible.

It is quite common for castrated males to tie with b1tches. She will not be in whelp. Your dogs are your responsibility.
