Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
In recent years, significant strides have been made in understanding and enhancing canine reproductive health, spanning from fertility management to neonatal care. This Special Issue aims to highlight recent advancements in canine reproduction and neonatology. Contributions are invited to cover a spectrum of topics, including reproductive physiology, assisted reproductive technologies, novel diagnostic approaches for fertility assessment, therapeutic interventions to optimize reproductive health, and strategies for improving neonatal care and development. Furthermore, this Issue will delve into emerging research on reproductive disorders, hormonal therapies, and nutritional influences impacting canine reproductive performances. We encourage submissions that advance our knowledge base, foster interdisciplinary dialogue, and promote best practices in canine reproductive health.
