Hello, I have a 6 year old pit bull who experienced a phantom pregnancy two years ago, and I only seen blood when she had that and I’m seeing a lot of blood now. She’s out of energy, only drinking water and peeing frequently, can you tell me what’s wrong?

Thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach! I am afraid that this is more concerning this time. It may be due to an infection such as Pyometra or something else. For that reason, I recommend that you have her evaluated by a veterinarian for further assessment and treatment. They can then decide what would be best after evaluating her. Best of luck!
