Canine Vaginal Cytology: Case 4


Dante is an 5 year-old Dalmatian and this is the first attempt to breed her. Dante's owner noticed vulvar swelling and bleeding on April 12th, and starting preparing vaginal smears on April 14th.

Dante was bred to a male of known, recent fertility on April 20th and 21st; the owner observed a "tie" in both cases. Scan through the images of the smears shown below and predict whether she became pregnant or not.
