What is the correct word for a female dog?

I'm not asking because I don't know. I'm asking because that work gets turned into asterisks most of the time on this site. But being as it is a correct term under the right conditions, would it get *****'d out then.

Update:

word, not work...excuse the typo

Update 2:

right... I know the word is *****...or b i t c h...

I just wanted to see if it was always turned into ***** by Y/A, or if under the correct context if it would show it.

Thanks for the answers...looks like it's an auto ***** my best answer will now be chosen on random criteria....prob the cutest girl.

    a female dog is still called a *****...unless she has a litter....the mother of the litter is called a "dam" and the father is called the "sire"

    Whenever people call me a b*tch I just laugh at them. The proper name for a female dog is b*tch, but people have disrespected this name by using it improperly. What many people don't know is that the word dog actually refers to a male of the domestic canine.

    Male: Dog

    Female: B*tch

    Father: Sire

    Mother: Dam

    In the same way as humans are referred to as 'man', canines are referred to as 'dog'. This can be considered sexist, but it is really up to your opinion.

    ***** is the correct word , so stop trying to create politically terms for it its a DOG or a *****

    just like a pig , is a PIG or a SOW , Horse is a FILLY or a COLT , ...wake up you lot and stop being scared of the language . that is what it IS.., go to a dog show , not sure about stupid North Americans pandering to ,, yeooow Thearts naard appropriate ...! How stupid can you be ! .. Just dont see why its offensive , ITS WHAT IT IS ! , I can call anyone a number of words that might offend them but when we start changing the English language ,,, then its TOTALLT PATHETIC , and I am a WOOman ! , doing things like this weakens womens politics

    A b*tch is a female dog.

    Another name is a Dam, when referring to breeding.

    It's because it's also a term used to degrade women. It's stupid if you ask me, plenty of words have double meanings.

    Because people do you use the word as a curse word....

    B*tch, you can read the word, and it doesn't "violate" the rules
