With the goal of evaluating the efficacity of bromocriptine and dexametazone, 30 mongrel bitches, with more than 35 days of pregnancy confirmed by ultrasonography, clinicaly healthy, with weights varying between 10 and 30 kgs, were divided in three groups: Group 1 - Underwent treatment with bromocriptine for 6 days with a dosage of 0,03 mg/kg every 12 hours; Group 2 Underwent treatment with dexametasone for 10 days with a dosage of 0,2 mg/kg every 12 hours; Group 3 control. The results demonstrated that both the animals treated with bromocriptine as well as those treated with dexametasone had their pregnancies interrupted in 90% of the cases. In the conditions in which the present experiment was made, no serious endometrial alterations, with endangerment of uterine phisiology, were observed. It was verified that the abortion happens later in the group treated with dexametasone, where the phoetus expulsion may occur up to the 10th day after the treatment.
