In French, a female dog (bitch) is called une chienne (pronounced shehn). While the masculine noun for a dog is un chien, the feminine counterpart adds "-ne." However, it is worth noting that while chienne is the correct zoological term for a female canine, it can also carry vulgar or colloquial slang connotations when used in certain informal idioms, much like its English equivalent.
