Abortions and Reproductive Failures

Brucellosis in the dog shows low prevalence but occurs most commonly after ingestion of contaminated placental materials or aborted foetuses, vaginal discharges from infected bitches that are in heat or who abort, and during breeding. Following an abortion, Brucella Canis may be shed for several weeks or, intermittently, for months.

Brucella Canis is a zoonotic organism and it is different for male and female dogs. Treatment for the disease can often be very expensive and it is thought that a combination of minocycline and streptomycin is useful but unaffordable.
