Thank you for submitting your question regarding Riley. I recommend that she sees her veterinarian today. She may have a urinary tract infection or even an infection in the remaining portion of her uterus. Rarely a dog can have a bleeding disorder that will present as blood coming from an opening on the body. I hope this information helps!
