Thumbs up Harley will be ok!!

Hi everyone!!
First of all I would like to Thank Altigger74 for posting for me cause it did not seem to work for me yesterday and I see it worked today!!
Had I not known about this site I would have never had the support from Jenn to get me through this ordeal!Bless her heartLast night in a panic I called the vet that did the surgery and told him that there was alot of blood under the skin and very swollen worse than the day before even after putting ice on him! He said Harley must of got at it meaning he licked it I said no way cause he has a onsie on and has been doing nothing but laying around.I told him I had to hand feed him and put water on my fingers so he would eat and drink.I explained that this was on the inside not outside.
This morning I emailed him the pictures and he said that this happens in 50% of dogs
I did not believe this to be true!So I no longer trusted him with my baby
This morning I took him to a different vet and she said:
The bruising seen on Harley's SCROTUM and PREPORTAL area is likely due to the CORPUS CAVERNOSUS being nicked by SCALPEL during SURGERY.
There may also be bleeding in the SCROTUM due to a VESSEL in the TUNIC of the TESTICLE leaking.
This should resolve and is a non-life threantening.
The vet also said the vet that did the surgery must be referring to 50% of the dogs he did surgery on The Breeder that I got Harley from suggested we go there cause he is a great Dr. of course she would not have any experiance with him neutering cause she breeds.I put my trust in him!
Harley is on METACAM for 3 days and Ice for the swelling when he allows it!
I cannot believe I paid $250 to have them do this to my little man
I paid $80 for someone to tell me the vet did this
I am Heart broken that this has happened to my Baby but thankful he will recoverI hope and Pray that nobody else has to ever go through this with their Baby it was very scaryThank God he will be ok
I thank Yorkie.com and the wonderful people here for all their support and prayers,God Bless!
Linda and Harley
