Expecting for new puppies can be an indescribable feeling. The sad thing is that your pregnant dog is under a very delicate situation. The worst thing that can possible happen is when your dog gets a miscarriage. It is single most painful thing that can happen to a expecting mommy dog – both physically and mentally. The following paragraphs describe the ways on how to treat miscarriage in dogs. But before that, let me clarify first once a miscarriage happens, there will be no turning back and it will be a very spontaneous problem.
It only takes a measly 63 days for dogs to have a normal gestation after ovulation – pretty much a small period of time to think that at times a female dog could conceive more than 3 puppies at the same time. Miscarriage can always be prevented through conducting periodic abdominal ultrasounds, blood samples to calculate the level of progesterone circulating around the body.
But then again, miscarriage is very inevitable and there is nothing much you can do. When a miscarriage has happened, you need to provide moral supportive care to your female dog. It includes administration of intravenous fluids to restore hydration level. If needed, you also have to give your dog some antibiotic, as a miscarriage also means bacterial infection. Regular check up should also follow to prevent further symptoms like inflammation of the mammary glands (mastitis) among others.
And that is how to treat miscarriage in dogs.
