Ovarian Cysts

[stabba 10,745]

My bullx bitch has now been in season for 30 days. I took her to the vet and he says this is usually a sign of ovarian cysts. The trouble is that she hasnt come into season full blown if you know what i meen. She is still dripping blood but isnt swollen very much. she is on antibiotics and has to go back to the vets in two weeks. If she is no better then my vet says she will have to be spayed. Has anyone else come across this problem. atb stabba

yeah with my gsd and it ended with an emergency hysterectony and a £400 vet bill.I was told she had the cysts and chose to wait it out cos she was still in season and i should have done something sooner thinkin back.It will be far cheaper and less stressful to have her spayed to be honest.The cysts can burst which can cause a lot of pain and i nearly lost my dog thankfully a good vet and some tlc she came through the hysterectomy but she was pretty ill for a while
