Urogenital Normal

The reproductive tract of a female dog includes two ovaries and a two-horned uterus. Female dogs not used for breeding should be spayed (surgical removal of the uterus and hormone-producing ovaries) to prevent pet overpopulation, cancers, and potentially life threatening infections. Spaying your dog prior to the onset of the first estrous cycle significantly decreases your pet’s chances of developing mammary cancer later in life.
