Symptoms of false pregnancy in dogs

The clinical manifestations of false pregnancy in dogs are very similar to normal pregnancy.
1. The sick dog has a gentle temperament and a shiny coat;
2. In the early stage, there are vomiting, diarrhea, increased appetite and other pregnancy reactions.
3. Abdominal fat accumulation and abdominal enlargement;
4. Breasts enlarge and milk can be squeezed out.
5. Nesting behavior will also occur near the time of delivery (about 55 days);
6. Loss of appetite or loss of appetite;
7. The maternal instinct is enhanced and the mother is willing to be eaten by other bitches. The puppies are lactated, and some dogs will also suck their own milk.
If it is a false pregnancy caused by ordinary endocrine disorders, the symptoms will generally disappear after 1-2 weeks. Since the symptoms of pseudopregnancy are similar to those of pregnancy, it is generally difficult to distinguish them. If necessary, you should go to the hospital for examination. If it is pyometra, a large amount of purulent secretions will be discharged, which will contaminate the delivery bed and premises. If not treated promptly and appropriately, it can turn into a chronic inflammatory process.
