If I had a bitch who gushed green water early in labor I would prepare for a problem..BUT if she has green fliud on her her legs and bedding AFTER a pup or two, I would not be concerned. If she had a thick green discharge after a day or so with a bad odor (infection)..I know we have a serious probem.
Watery green during whelping and thick, green infection have two totally different odors. |
Thanks Pat for your clear explanation. I tell you being a nurse in my past life somewhat prepared me for whelping a litter, but the 2 are totally different.
