Pet's info: Dog | Shih Tzu | Female | unspayed | 2 years old
Hi I have a two year old Shih Tzu that has been diagnosed with Pyometra. She is on Antibiotics. She had a flood of bloody fluid last Saturday night that went on all night, and then again on Wednesday. The vet thought she seemed a lot better on Friday, but her tummy seems really swollen again. I think this may have been caused by the Alizin injection she had the season before for a mismate and it has upset her hormones. Do you think it would be safe to use Alizin to help with the Pyometra?
