Swollen tits on my dog

19 11:16:46

Question
My dog had pups awhile ago and they were weened and gave away she is still produceing milk and her tits are swollen is there anything I can do to help.

Answer
How long since the pups were weaned? Try putting her on some lower protein dog food for a few weeks. That should help :) If she's VERY red and swollen watch for infection. You'll need to express enough milk every day to keep her comfortable and do some cold compresses to ease the swelling and heat.
