Due to an incomplete regression of the Mullerian duct during sex- differentiation in the male dog, underdeveloped female internal genitals like the uterus can be found in affected dogs. Further symptoms include undescended testes, infertility and sometimes tumors. Normally, external genitilia are fully developed.
