Endometritis in dogs is an inflammation of the mucous membrane of the uterus in female dogs. Often this inflammation can spread to the submucosa or muscle layer of the bitch. Acute endometritis, most commonly seen within the first few days after birth, is characterised by increased body temperature, depression, thirst and thirst, inappetence, sometimes vomiting, arching of the back, and in some cases, a small amount of cloudy flocculent discharge from the vagina. Chronic endometritis, which can be caused by acute inflammation or by chronic inflammatory stimulation, has little change in mental appetite. However, the body is mostly lethargic and there is a white plasma discharge from the vagina. The dog does not usually come into heat, but there are some dogs in heat, but they cannot conceive. The uterus can be palpated and the horn of the uterus can be hardened and thickened. There may be fluctuating sensations when large amounts of fluid accumulate. Externally an increase in abdominal girth is visible.
