My one week old female puppy is having to be bottle fed because her mom is on antibiotics and pain med for mastitis so I'm wiping their private areas to make them potty and I noticed blood coming from her vagina when I wiped her why is this
I'm truly sorry to hear about your puppy's condition. Seeing blood coming from such a young puppy's vagina is indeed very concerning. This could be due to a variety of reasons, including a urinary tract infection, trauma, or even a congenital issue. Given her age and the symptoms, it's crucial to seek veterinary attention as soon as possible.
In the meantime, make sure she is comfortable and closely monitored. Ensure she stays hydrated and warm. When cleaning her, avoid using any harsh cleaning agents; instead, use a soft, damp cloth.
This situation requires immediate veterinary attention to determine the exact cause and to provide the necessary treatment. Puppies are very delicate, and prompt care is essential to ensure her health and well-being.
If you have any further questions or need additional assistance, please don't hesitate to ask. Thank you.
