my king charles has a white gooy discharge coming from her vaginal area
2007-01-16 07:08:03 · 14 answers · asked by Anonymous in Pets ➔ Dogs
Yeast infection!
Is she spayed? IF NOT there could be an infection in the uterus that is causing the discharge. This is deadly to animals if not corrected. (if this is the case she will need to be spayed at once!!!)
It is possible that she is starting her heat cycle. BUT you need to find out!
PLEASE call your vet. Either way she will need meds!! Waiting could be VERY harmful to your pet!!

well... answer these questions:
1. How old is she? If she is older than 7, she is a senior, take her to the vet!
2. Is she spayed? If not, this could indicate a Pyometra (Puss Filled Uterus) and is in need of emergency surgery.
3. Is she urinating more frequently and drinking more water? This could indicate a Urinary Tract Infection (UTI) and sometimes with a UTI there is discharge.
This could also be Vaginitis.
Either way, this is something that needs medical attention, call your vet and make an appointment.
As long as she is eating and drinking normally, this is not an emergency. However, if she is lethargic and not eating normally, get her in ASAP!

How old is she? Has she been in heat before? Is there a possibility that she's pregnant?
Barring normal lubricating secretions and those associated with a heat, unusual vaginal secretions may be a sign of infection... Get your dog to a vet to make sure she's okay.

what does the vet say about it? Is it REALLY a king charles? Or a cavalier king charles? 2 different breeds.

how old is she? if she is over 6 months of age she might be starting her season...... if its turns to a red discharge then its her seanson if this doesn't happen within the next 3 days or so get her to the vets. unless there are other unusual symptoms like painfull stomach area or diahorrea...... then get her to a vets straight away!!!

Your dog is probably starting or ending her menstrual cycle. She should have discharge for 7-10 days then for 7-10 days she'll be able to breed and then bleed again for 7-10 days. If you don't want puppies be careful.

Sounds like she has a womb infection - especially if she isn't spayed. You need to go to a vet NOW as if it is a womb infection she is very very sick and will get worse very quickly - better to get her checked as soon as possible.

How old is she?
She may be going into heat.
Or she could have an infection.
You should take her to a vet.

Has she been fixed? If not, she's probably ovulating or going into heat.
If she's fixed, then it could be a yeast infection.
The best thing to do is make a trip to the vet!
