Study Notes
Female Canine Reproductive Structures
- The vulva's labia are supplied by the internal and external pudendal arteries.
- The clitoral fossa is a depression near the ventral commissure, containing the clitoris.
- The clitoris is homologous to the male penis and has erectile tissue.
- In mares, clitoral sinuses are on the glans' periphery.
- The vestibule is between the vagina and vulva, housing the urethral tubercle, external urethral orifice, and vestibular bulbs.
- The urethral tubercle is a ridge at the vestibulovaginal junction, unique to dogs.
- The dorsal tubercle is the vaginal entrance, and the ventral tubercle leads to the urethra.
- The ventral tubercle is a landmark for urinary catheter placement.
- The external urethral orifice is the urethra's external opening.
- Vestibular bulbs are erectile tissue within the vestibule, constricting during copulation.
