High water kennel:
Yes sir if it had been an open pyometra I wouldn’t have spayed her. She got severely ill and had to be hospitalized for 5 days, kidney values went sky high, her white cell count was outrageous. She had 2 more days to turn the corner or I was going to call it. She got a little better so I took her home and ran fluids, nice to work for the vet lol. We repeated bloodwork and her values were coming down but even working at the clinic 5 days of meds and IV and bloodwork gets expensive... she’s still here so I’m fortunate.
I read where you said that u had to spay one of your females for a closed pyometra,,, I had never heard of this before last yr when one of my plot gyps got an infection in hers and after 2 days of seeing her not acting right,, on the 3rd day when I come in from work,, I took her to a vet since she could hardly stand by herself.. She never made it off the vet table that night and she died at 3 1/2 yrs old... Terrible and big lost on my part for not thinking this was as serious as it was.. That vet told me that it is a situation that don't usually happen but he said for me to run antibiotics thru gyps after a heat cycle if you do not breed them ,,, and that would usually stop any possibility of infection being trapped inside and rupturing...It was a learning lesson for me at 44yrs old and have been raising dogs all my life …
