I have a male Australian terrier .last week i got a female in heat so as to mate but when i put them in the kennel together they refused to. Eventually i released them letting them get to know each other but again as my dog tried to get on her back the female sat down and refused to get up. What did i do wrong or if it is not me what could be the reason for this?

Hope i helped! if ya need anything else drop it in the inbox!!

So we waited and after a while when they got used to eachother they mated and lived happily ever after. (not really) lol

I don't actually know if this will work, but it's worth a shot. Give them equal attention, and give them alot of alone time. After about a week, try it again, if it still doesn't work, maybe they just don't like eachother.
