Puppy Vaginitis

Puppy vaginitis is inflammation of the vagina in a puppy that has not reached puberty (i.e., has not gone though a heat cycle). This common condition is also called juvenile vaginitis.

This is a common condition in young female puppies, and is usually mild. However, a visit or mention to your veterinarian is warranted to confirm a diagnosis and rule out other possibilities, such as an infection of the urinary tract.
