The green is from the placenta detaching.
this is my thought exactly---(Brucellosis) Bangs as cattleman call it is a disaster in the cattle business---caused abortions and renders most sterile--bulls and cows !! It has caused big problems in kennels as well--hunting dogs--show dogs all can be effected. And once they have it--my understanding is they have it till death. People need to have stud dogs checked for bangs--and never have a bitch on your place unless it's tested. It's bad news !!!
