My dog has white vaginal discharge, licks, and pees often. Why?

Question

Hi, My dog has vaginal discharge of a whitish colour. She frequently licks the area and urinates much more often. She seems otherwise ok. Any thoughts? Thanks Tony. Pet's info: Dog | Mixed Breed Large (61lb +) | Female | unspayed | 108 lbs

It sounds like Margo may have an infection in the uterus or lower genital tract. This is most common following a recent heat cycle. I would advise that she be examined by her veterinarian to confirm this. If she does have a uterine infection, your vet can advise you about the best treatment which may include oral antibiotics or having her spayed depending on the severity.
