Center for Animal Welfare Science, Departments of Comparative Pathobiology and Animal Science, Purdue University, West Lafayette, IN, 47907, USA.

It is well established that maternal factors can affect the abilities of offspring to cope with stressors and can influence their overall welfare states. However, maternal effects have not been extensively explored in US commercial breeding kennels (CBKs). Therefore, the objective of this study was to identify if fear and stress in dams affected puppy welfare metrics in CBKs.

The present study aimed to evaluate the acute phase proteins (serum amyloid A, alpha-1 acid glycoprotein, and C-reactive protein) profile in canine and feline fetal fluids during the second half of gestation. Seventeen pregnant domestic short-hair queens and 19 pregnant mixed-breed bitches were enrolled. Animals were divided into three groups according to their gestational age (30-39, 40-49, and 50-60 days).

Theriogenology

March 2025

Dipartimento di Scienze Veterinarie, Università di Pisa, Via Livornese (Lato Monte), 1289, San Piero a Grado, PI, Pisa, 56122, Italy.

Article Synopsis
  • - The study focused on evaluating the uterine artery resistivity index (RI) through Doppler ultrasonography to assess canine fetal and placental conditions during pregnancy, particularly in relation to embryo resorption rates.
  • - It examined 44 bitches of varying breeds and weights, conducting ultrasounds 25 days post-ovulation to gather data on embryo viability and resorption sites, along with factors like age and size group.
  • - Statistical analysis revealed a significant relationship between the RI and gestational age and the percentage of embryo resorptions, indicating that these factors may influence uterine blood flow in pregnant dogs.
