Inguinal lymph node location

Hi there

If you were trying to feel for a female dog's inguinal lymph node, would it be located right under the last teat? In other words, if I feel around the last teat, is that where I should find the node, or could it be about 3 or 4 cm below the last teat?

Thanks

    Hi, That’s right. There are 1 or 2 inguinal glands (technically, they are referred to as 'lymph nodes', but that’s just a linguistic detail), sometimes 3 or 4, which measure 1 to 2 cm in length. They are located 2 to 4 cm in front of the pubis, above the inguinal mammary glands. Kind regards, Laura

    It’s 3 or 4 cm below, not 1 cm. That was a typo.
