Redish Brown Vaginal Discharge After Spaying

by Il_Padrino, Nov 23, 2008 06:29PM
Our 22 month old beagle is experienceing slight vaginal discharge two days after spaying.  The discharge is red-ish brown and odorless.  Luckily, the amount of discharge is slight; probably 0.40cc since we noticed it 4 hours ago.  It is very spotty.  Her appetite is fine and all other things all normal; with the expected post surgical behaviors excluded.

This is the very first time we've experienced any discharge following a spay surgery.  It's the weekend and our vet's closed.  Is this an emergency situation or can it wait until her normal vet opens in the morning?

not an emergency.  probably a little bleeding  from the vaginal stump.  will most likely go away without treatment.  A course of antibiotics would be a good precaution.  not much else to do.  If this was done at a Banfield clinic I'd be a bit more worried.  They have a history of sloppy work.
