Markuss, beware of the internet collective diagnosis...until a competent herp oriented vet sees it, you really have very little to go on. I am sorry about your dog, that is the toughest thing I ever dealt with when her time came...been there. Anyway, make sure that cloaca does not dry out, and get her to a vet and then make informed decisions. Unless someone better informed says don't, I would think you could spread a little neosporin or even KY jelly on it and prevent it drying out, 2x daily. Do check out prolapses with Green Tree python, this is a common malady with them I am told. I have friends who can recommend a vet if needed, PM me at the address I sent you if necessary. I am thinking you live in North County San Diego?

Did this just suddenly present itself or has this condition existed for weeks/months? It may be simple, just a stitch or two in the right place? Maybe he will respond to soaking etc. as the very experienced herpetoculturalist Alan suggested?

I wish you the best and I have hope it will improve, but you really need to get the best advice and that requires an exam and diagnosis. If you share your experiences, we can learn from it and perhaps make informed decisons if we cross that river. Best wishes, Vic
