Guest Anonymous Posted September 14, 2003 Posted September 14, 2003 My pregnant dog has had some mucus discharge after urinating. Not much, just enough to notice. I figure she is 31 days along. What could this be? I've never seen it before. Thanks. :pepsi: Quote
imported_Kat Posted September 14, 2003 Posted September 14, 2003 The gestation period for a bitch is 9 weeks as I am sure you are aware. A discharge at this stage isn't really common at all and it could be that your bitch is aborting the puppies. I can't give a diagnosis over the internet but you shuld get her to your Vet so he can take a swab and hormonal level blood test. That will give you a more accurate idea. Quote
imported_Cassie Posted September 14, 2003 Posted September 14, 2003 A clear mucoid vaginal discharge is a reasonably reliable sign of pregnancy and is noticed about 4-5 weeks into pregnancy and continues until parturition...so a vaginal discharge is quite normal for a pregnant dog...of course you should be taking your bitch in to have her looked over by a Vet to insure her good health.
