Eutheria (from Greek εὐ-, eú-'good, right' and θηρίον, thēríon 'beast'; lit. ' true beasts '), also called Pan-Placentalia, is the clade consisting of placentals and all therian mammals that are more closely related to placentals than to marsupials.
A mammary gland is an exocrine gland in humans and other mammals that produces milk to feed young offspring.Mammals get their name from the Latin word mamma, "breast".The mammary glands are arranged in organs such as the breasts in primates (for example, humans and chimpanzees), the udder in ruminants (for example, cows, goats, sheep, and deer), and the dugs of other animals (for example, dogs ...
In dogs nearly all cases of acromegaly are caused by endogenous or exogenous progestogens, this causes a hypersecretion of growth hormones from the mammary gland. Pituitary tumours causing excess growth hormone secretion are very rare in dogs.
Theria (/ ˈ θ ɪər i ə / or / ˈ θ ɛr i ə /; from Ancient Greek θηρίον (thēríon) 'wild beast') is a subclass of mammals [2] amongst the Theriiformes.Theria includes the eutherians (including the placental mammals) and the metatherians (including the marsupials) but excludes the egg-laying monotremes and various extinct mammals evolving prior to the common ancestor of placentals ...
False pregnancy*, or pseudocyesis, is a common condition in female intact dogs. Signs include swelling of the mammary glands, lactation, not eating, and "mothering" small objects. [163] Pyometra is an infection of the uterus. It is a common and potentially fatal condition in dogs.
The mammary glands of mammals are specialized to produce milk, a liquid used by newborns as their primary source of nutrition. The monotremes branched early from other mammals and do not have the teats seen in most mammals, but they do have mammary glands. The young lick the milk from a mammary patch on the mother's belly.

Expression of the PRLR protein is found within cells of the mammary glands [10] in accordance with its role in lactation, but also is the subject of attention for its diverse and emerging roles by its expression in adipose tissue, [11] pancreatic islet cell proliferation, [12] and immune responses.
