    (Palampur, 2021-07-30) Sharma, Ananya; Singh, Madhumeet
    The present study was conducted in she-dogs (N=30), belonging to different breeds and ages, presented to the Department of Veterinary Gynaecology and Obstetrics, CSK Himachal Pradesh Krishi Vishvavidyalaya (CSKHPKV), Palampur for determination of mating time and diagnosis of various reproductive disorders. Serum progesterone was estimatedfrom the blood sample collected in clot activator by cephalic venepuncture from she-dogs during different stages of the estrous cycle. The objectives of the study were to establish the usefulness of exfoliative vaginal cytology for the diagnosis of various reproductive stages and disorders in she-dogs and compare different staining techniques for vaginal cytology in canines. All the staining techniques provided diagnostic results, however, the Giemsa staining method proved to be the best followed by Leishman's method of staining. A significantly higher proportion (p0.05) for non- cornified cells (r= -0.7408 to -0.5807) during early estrus. Also, the percentage of keratinized cells and progesterone concentration were significantly lower (p<0.01-0.05) in she–dogs subsequently conceived after mating as compared to non-conceived.
