Dog neutering question

This should be a discussion with your vet.
Males usual 5 days if followed post operative care
Females 10 days

Your vet should be able to answer any queries for you. Make sure you keep the Elizabethan collar on him so he can’t get to the area and prolong healing.
It’s an operation the vets carry out daily so they have all the answers

Deffo discuss with your vet as if different breed to breed and just dogs personally!
I have a German shepherd x border collie, took him about 5-7 days to be back to normal but he had also had a reaction to the pain meds that made him have blood in his sick/stool 😭 but wound wise and moving around wise it was like a day or two!

have spoken to my vet, however they said that it varies dog to dog and isn’t a set time, so just wondering what other people’s experiences were! X

My Doberman only took a few days to be back to normal, he was more upset by the cone of shame than anything else 😂 I think we were told to wait maybe 10 days to walk him off lead but I can’t remember for certain. Def didn’t really bother him x

My boy has his op on 18th june by the 20th he was back to his normal self, although we still kept walks to a short ten minutes, after 5 days untill day 10 just to make sure he didn’t pull his stitches too much. If your unsure on a collar you can get a suit or the blow up donuts they are good to! Although my boy never actually touched his scar it’s one of those just incase! Also first poop after op maybe runny do not panic and if he whines it’s the drugs wearing off not that he’s in pain I promise you!

It took out chow chow x husky about 7 days but he really struggled with upset tummy due to the anesthetic. They are a sensitive breed and I had to go back to get something to help. Would 100% recommend the suit over a collar, particularly if a larger breed as it meant our boy could get comfy and rest up properly.
