What's pseudo pregnancy, and what are the behaviour changes? My 2 year old golden just finished her periods 2 weeks ago and has been skipping meals, lethargic etc. Took her for a check up and they said she is secreting fluid from nipples so it is pseudo pregnancy. She didn't eat kibbles yesterday and today, though she is eating snacks. They collected blood and a vaginal swab, awaiting results. She is semi active not fully active as before

Pseudopregnancy in dogs, also known as false pregnancy, occurs when a female dog displays signs of pregnancy despite not being pregnant. This can include behaviors like nesting, restlessness, lactation, and even abdominal enlargement. It's typically caused by hormonal fluctuations after the female dog's heat cycle. Some dogs can also become overprotective about their surroundings and exhibit some aggression. It resolve on its own without treatment. If the reports are normal you can give her some appetizer.
