Be careful with the walking; I think activity too soon is what caused my guy to have a bruise.

Try carrying him while you walk. Smell is a dog's most powerful sense, so just being outside and sniffing the air while you do the walking is great stimulation.

I understand being worried. My vet's office crowned me "most emotional doggy momma" when I had Maximo neutered. I completely humiliated myself when I dropped him off and when I picked him up. They wanted to sedate me.
