Logan was neutered yesterday morning and had 20 baby teeth removed. He has been lethargic ever since. I brought him home yesterday around 5 p.m. He ate a little bit of food but drank NOTHING. He peed quite a bit yesterday, but was given IV fluids all day.

He still has had nothing to drink. I called the vet, and she said if he doesn't start drinking by tomorrow, to bring him in. I put some water in a syringe and gave him water that way. That's all he has had. He seemed very uncomfortable last night and this morning, so I got pain medication from the vet this morning and gave him a dose. He has done nothing but lay in his crate. He has peed outside twice today, and his stools are almost like diarrhea.

Does this sound like normal behavior following a neuter?
