| Multiple dog house hold, spay question Ok this is kind of a question for multiple dog owners. I will talk to the vet about it also but wanted every ones opinions. Penny is 8 months and gets spayed on the 9th. Her and my one year old Joey play a lot. The last time I dealt with a spay was 10 years ago when Callie was spayed and she was an only dog. Do I need to keep her in like a play pen? I have a nice one I can add pieces to to make pretty much whatever size I want. I'm just not sure what I should do. I know she will be pretty out of it the first day but what about after that? Any suggestions or tips?

| When I had my pack of 3 and the baby got spayed, vet said no running, jumping for 2 weeks, keep her quiet. The day after her spay she was rearing to go, one would never know she just had surgery, but I kept her confined, away from the other 2. That was quite a few years ago, medical Technology has changed greatly, but mine had to stay quiet for 2 weeks, no rough housing.

| When Bella had her laser surgery spay, the vet told us to (1) keep her from licking her stitches and incision, and (2) no jumping on the couch or bed, or stair climbing or excessive physical activity. Other than that, we did not have to keep her restrained. She was her full energy self within two days. If there is any possibility that the other dogs will roughhouse or lick her stitches, I'd keep her separated. Oh, also the vet did not send Bella home with any pain medication. I had to ask for some Metacam the next day. She was a lot happier with the Metacam. Last edited by pstinard; 05-04-2017 at 05:40 AM. |
