Abstract

A 2-year-old pregnant Labrador bitch in second parity was presented to Veterinary Clinical Complex, A.N.D.U.A.T. Kumarganj, Ayodhya, with a history of complete gestation lasting 64 days. The dog exhibited anorexia and straining since 24 hours, yet unable to deliver foetuses. On clinical examination, the rectal temperature was 102°F. The vital parameters such as pulse rate, heart rate, and respiration rate were slightly elevated. The conjuctival mucous membrane colour appeared normal and pinkish. Per vaginal examination revealed a dilated cervix, and radiographic examination confirmed the presence of more than 5 foetuses. Considering the condition, a prompt decision was made to perform elective caesarean section (C section). Following C section, 9 live pups were delivered. The outcome highlights the importance of quick and precise decisions in critical situations to save the life of foetus and bitch.
