Preventive measures for dog dystocia:

1. Provide reasonable nutrition to female dogs during pregnancy. Too much nutrition can make the fetus too large and cause dystocia. For dogs with a strong appetite, the food intake can be relatively controlled, especially after the 45th day of pregnancy, attention should be paid to adjusting the nutrition of the female dog.

2. Pregnant bitches should have an appropriate amount of exercise, which can enhance the bitch’s physique and increase her productivity when giving birth. Reduce the fear of bitches when giving birth. The female dog should enter the delivery room in advance before giving birth to familiarize her with the delivery environment and ensure that the delivery area is quiet.

Treatment of dystocia in dogs:

1. Since it is difficult to correct the fetal position in the uterus of a female dog, midwifery measures should be implemented quickly after the cause of the disease is clarified. For female dogs with labor-related dystocia, medication can be used to induce labor combined with forceps traction to assist in delivery. For dystocia caused by other factors, caesarean section surgery should be performed immediately.

2. When there is no abnormality in the soft birth canal (the cervix is ​​fully opened), if it is considered that labor dystocia is due, oxytocin can be injected intramuscularly at 1 unit/kg of body weight at intervals of 20 minutes. 1 time, usually 2-3 injections. In order to improve the contractility of the uterus, 10% to 30 ml of 10% calcium gluconate can be infused intravenously.

3. For difficult labor caused by birth canal and fetal abnormalities. You should be sent to the hospital promptly for caesarean section.
