Abstract

The case of an 8 month-old crossbred dog with evidences of impaired sexual differentiation is described. There was an incomplete foreskin development, micropenis without urethral opening, bifid scrotum, and pseudovagina with urethral opening. The findings are discussed and a possible testicular feminization syndrome is assumed that resulted in a male pseudohermaphroditism.
