Infertility is a broad clinical sign affecting the reproductive system, meaning a dog is unable to produce or carry offspring. It is not a single disease but rather a complex condition that can stem from hormonal imbalances, structural abnormalities in the reproductive organs, or poor quality of sperm or eggs. Because it has many different underlying causes, the genetic inheritance of infertility is highly complex.
This condition typically has no effect on a dog's daily health or behavior and is only noticed when a sexually mature dog fails to conceive or sire a litter after mating. It is usually identified once the dog reaches breeding age, typically after one to two years of life.
Treatment depends entirely on the underlying cause; while some hormonal or infectious issues can be managed, congenital or genetic defects are usually irreversible. Depending on the diagnostic tests and therapies required, costs typically range from 300 to 2500 EUR.
