Synopsis

Based on the proceedings of the First International Symposium on Canine and Feline Reproduction, Dublin, July 1988, this book includes 29 invited papers representing nearly all laboratories worldwide which have maintained a basic or clinical interest in dog or cat reproduction over the past decade. These full papers and the reports of posters also presented at the symposium provide a summary of current knowledge about the normal reproductive processes in dogs and cats and the extent to which their fertility can be enhanced, suppressed or controlled. Detailed reports cover the major advances in our understanding of the reproductive biology of these species and suggest new directions for future studies. The papers are grouped into sections on ovarian function, induction of oestrus and ovulation, contraception, normal parturition and drug-induced termination of pregnancy, and selected topics related to artificial insemination, including timing of ovulation, semen freezing and methods of insemination. The overall emphasis is on the practical goals of improved and reliable methods for non-permanent, non-surgical contraception and for controlled breeding management.
