The basal fetus ordinarily lies in the base of one horn, and the vaginal end of its fetal sac, instead of protruding into the cervix, passes across the uterine end of the cervix into the base of the other horn, or practically into the other uterus, since the bitch has virtually a double uterus, the two organs communicating at their bases.
