She will be fine. If she has internal stitches she may never even bother to lick them Hattie didn't. They bounce back so quickley I had a list of four things Hattie should not do post op, i.e. not jumping up not getting on furniture not running upstairs not running around. She did all four in the first 30 minutes from getting home, she is fine and well! If you can avoid the collar of shame I would as I think it makes them more stressed good luck!

I'm sure she'll be fine and she'll get over it quickly. I was so worried about taking Bo for hers and felt so guilty about putting her through the op but she was back to normal with 2 or 3 days. She was sleepy and quiet the afternoon we collected her but was wagging her tail again the next day. We had a job keeping her still. Her stitches were dissolvable ones and the baby vest kept everything clean for a few days. Good luck.

The 4pm update yesterday was that she was sitting in her crate wagging her tail :) Bob and the girls are headed to the vets soon to pick her up. I cannot wait to get her back home. The house feels so empty without her.

Had Lucia spayed just 3 weeks ago
Was out of it from the anesthesia for a day or two but by day three back to normal
Tried to keep her calm for 5-7 days and was only somewhat successful
Never went to lick the incision even though we had provision ready if she did
All and all a very simple event and a distant memory in only three weeks

Daisy had a great night. I am keeping an 18 month old infant onesie on her to keep her from licking her incision. She is curious about it although pretty good about not licking too much. This is just an extra precaution when she is in her crate.

She walks and sits very gingerly. It is kinda cute. You can tell she is tender, but doing great. She is having a hard time emptying her bladder though. I am sure this is just a "it feels funny down there" type of feeling and it should be better.

Here she is rocking her onesie :)

Aw hope she is back to her normal self soon. Can I ask what may be a silly question... How does pup go to toilet with the vest on? Do you remove it each time? Sorry for my ignorance... Really interested. The vest seems much better than the lampshade of doom...
