A dog’s postpartum lochia usually lasts for over ten days. To help the dog pass the lochia sooner, you can try feeding some motherwort. If the lochia lasts too long, consider whether the dog has a uterine inflammation or other problem, and provide anti-inflammatory treatment promptly.
If the dog is older, also focus on ruling out pyometra, and take the dog to a veterinary clinic promptly for diagnosis and treatment.
