Today, I checked it again and there was more than usual. I’ve noticed she has seemed to not be as hyper, for lack of a better term, and into everything with her curiosity as she usually is. She just wants to lay around a bit. Her appetite is fine. She’ll eat everything given. However, today as I was holding her I noticed her discharge had a bit of a brownish red tint to it, but is still thick like when she’s in estrus. I’m thinking blood, but I’ve never seen her bleed during estrus. I have read that a uti can cause some blood though. I have a photo of the gauze I used to wipe her down I will attach as reference. I’m thinking I should run her on a course of antibiotics to be safe. Just unsure which would be better between the cipro and clavamox. And also need some dosing help if possible.
