Q

A bacterial uterine infection that causes inflammation of the uterus. This condition is often associated with the retained placenta or fetuses, after the delivery of a large litter of puppies. The open cervix facilitates easy entry of the bacteria in the uterus of the dogs.The retention of placenta, fetuses and other tissues in the uterus provides a growth medium to the bacteria. The bacteria
causing these infections are coliform bacteria like Escheria coli. They spread quickly into the blood and can cause serious dog health hazards.

occur. Typically, within two to four months after the cycle, the female starts showing
signs of the disease.
