If a dog has a retained placenta, it's crucial to seek veterinary assistance promptly. The veterinarian may perform an examination and possibly administer medication to help expel the retained tissue. In some cases, surgical intervention may be necessary to remove the placenta. Monitoring the dog for signs of infection, such as fever or discharge, is also important.

What do you do if your dog doesn't fully deliver placenta?
If you believe your dog has a retained placenta, you need to take her to a veterinarian to have her examined. A retained placenta can cause infection and necrosis of the uterus, which could kill your dog. Note: when taking your dog with new puppies to the vet, you need to take all the puppies with you - it's not a good idea to try to leave them at home. Nestle them in a laundry basket or a plastic storage bin with towels across the bottom to transport them safely.

2nd Answer: The Mother dog does not normally get sick from eating placentas, especially 2 days later. I highly recommend you take her in to see your Veterinarian immediately.

Is it safe to pull the placenta out from the heifer?
If you have never had a cow with a retained placenta, you should probably call your veterinarian and work with him/her on this. The answer is, it depends on how attached the placenta is. If the cotyledon/caruncle interfaces have all been broken down and the placenta is just "hung up" on one caruncle, then it is safe to gently apply some traction to the placenta to help it fall out of the uterus. If the placenta is still attached, it is very dangerous to pull on the placenta because it will rip, leaving some of the placenta in the uterus where it will likely set up an infection and could cause the heifer to become sterile. You can try to remove the placenta by very gently pulling down (towards the ground) on it - you should be using about the pressure you would use to pull three helium balloons toward you. If the placenta doesn't move, leave it alone - cows can take up to a week to completely pass the placenta and it doesn't seem to cause any permanent damage to the uterus. However, this cow should be watched for signs of milk fever (hypocalcemia, causes weakness and can be life-threatening), ketosis (negative energy balance, usually happens at 4-6 weeks after calving) and any signs of "ain't doing right (ADR)" such as lower feed consumption. A retained placenta seems to be an indication that something isn't quite right with the cow and these other problems are more likely in a cow that has retained a placenta.

What happens if you have placenta still in uterus almost 4 months after birth of baby?
First of all, retained placental fragments would not be a called a complication if it didn't cause any harm to your body. It is a complication of labour that happens during the third stage. It can cause postpartum hemorrhage especially during the first 24 hours post delivery. It can also cause an infection. There are quite a few causes to why this occurs. This isn't something to just brush over. You can check medical books as regards to obstetrics if that would satisfy your query. It wouldn't be called a complication if it would not hurt you. I reckon it's better to be safe than sorry. You wouldn't get a D&C without a valid reason, despite it being an elective procedure. ~ Don't listen to the answer below. I had retained placenta at 4 months postpartum which was supposed to clear on its own once I started the pill. I'm now 23 months postpartum and I still have pain in the 'placenta spot' (saw it on the ultrasound) and have clotting and bleeding when I do any form of exercise. I'm still alive even though I had retained placenta t 4 months postpartum. I'm going for another ultrasound to determine if scar tissue is causing the pain or something else. My doctor thinks that there may still be placenta fragments inside. See your doctor and push to get a D&C. Don't take 'no' for an answer. I did and now that I want to have another baby, I need to go through tests to make sure that I can (and hopefully stop the pain). Good luck! ~ Technically, you would be dead. The uterus will not be able to contract properly (the uterus needs to contract in order to prevent bleeding). If there are retained placental fragments, then postpartum hemorrhage will happen. If small fragments of the retained placenta was not detected immediately, it will still lead to hemorrhaging, and possibly infection.
