The prognosis (outcome) for dogs having an abortion or pregnancy loss depends on the underlying cause. Ovariohysterectomy (spay) and other specific treatments of the cause often lead to a good prognosis in dogs with non-infectious causes of abortion. With infectious causes, the prognosis depends on the infectious agent, severity of infection, and aggressiveness of treatment.
