Eight common diseases of unneutered dogs

1. Pyometra: mostly occurs in old dogs over 7 years old, and the incidence rate is quite high in unneutered old female dogs . This disease often only has symptoms of frequent thirst and frequent urination when it first occurs. If it is not an open type with a large amount of secretions, the owner will not pay much attention. If it is delayed for a long time, the body tissues will be damaged due to the absorption of bacterial endotoxins, and in severe cases, it may lead to kidney failure, which cannot be treated. Atretic pyometra that cannot drain out will cause peritonitis when the uterus ruptures due to collision or excessive pus, which can quickly lead to death.
2. Endometritis: Due to hormonal factors after estrus, the uterus is prone to infection. A small amount of secretion can be seen clinically, which can be controlled with medication. However, animals with this type of system can easily become infected with pyometra. cases, surgical resection is a once-and-for-all solution.

3. Mammary gland tumors: A common disease in unsterilized elderly animals. More than 50% of dogs have malignant tumors. Once this occurs, the chance of recurrence after resection is quite high. According to the literature, the cause of these diseases is hormonally related and is almost impossible to occur in animals neutered before one year of age.
