Question
we have a 5 year old pug female who was with a male 5-21 and now she is having a yellowish brownish spotting  and not really eating does this mean she is having a miscarriage or ? she has had 3 litters but I don't remember anything like this

Answer
This discharge isn't normal so I would have her examined by your vet ASAP. It may very well be a miscarriage but your vet will need to ensure if it is that her uterus is clean or she could develop a life-threatening infection. There are several possibilities but I wouldn't even want to hazard a guess w/o seeing her personally. Please let me know the outcome of the vet visit & I wish you the very best.
