My dogs just bred. Can I prevent pregnancy with emergency meds?

Question

I just caught my male and female dogs locked for 30 minutes. I need to know if there are emergency contraceptives for dogs? Pet's info: Dog | American Pit Bull Terrier | Female | unspayed | 4 years and 7 months old | 41 lbs

There aren't emergency contraceptives like the Plan B in humans but there are medications pets can take to end pregnancy. Not all vets carry them however. Start with a call to your veterinarian and go from there. The best thing you can do is have one or both dog altered to prevent any future pregnancies. There are both health and behavioral benefits: https://www.petcoach.co/article/benefits-of-neutering-castrating-male-dogs-puppies/ https://www.petcoach.co/article/spaying-ovariohysterectomy-the-benefits-in-dogs/ I hope this helps and best of luck.
