I noticed my female chihuahua licking her vagina a little more than usual. She just gave birth to 4 pups 2 almost 3 weeks ago. Every thing went very smooth. I counted the pups and placentas and one came out for each pup. I noticed that she has the bacteria that I asked about previously around her vagina. I opened it up and it looked a bit suspicious to me even though I don't know what it's supposed to look like up there. I see some red or brown stuff coming out of one section. take a look

Thank you for submitting your question regarding Bella. It is common for a female dog to have reddish brown discharge known as lochia for a number of weeks after delivering. However, I recommend that she sees her veterinarian. It is safest to ensure her signs are normal. The puppies can be started on dewormer as well. I hope this information helps!
