Answer
Hi. You need to find another vet, fast. If she is pregnant, then something may be going wrong with it. She may also be having what's known as pyrometra, a very serious, and deadly, infection of the uterus. A dog should not have any colored discharge before the birth of the first puppy. Get her to a vet fast.
