clitoris in dogs

The small, erectile body located at the anterior end of the vulva. Every claim on this page comes from the Leumas anatomy graph and carries its source.

What the clitoris is

The small, erectile body located at the anterior end of the vulva. The atlas records it as a organ at the organ scale in the dog.

Where the clitoris is

It sits within the reproductive system. Only the system is known. The position shown carries almost no spatial information.

What the clitoris connects to

The atlas records 9 typed relationships for it, across 5 kinds of connection. part of mammalian vulva and reproductive system.

Supply and innervation

This dataset asserts no arterial supply, venous drainage or innervation for the clitoris. Only a minority of structures carry those edges here, so an empty answer means nothing has been recorded — not that there is nothing to record.
