Honestly, not to scare you but my usually calm laid back boy let his dark side come out. He never barks, never ever howls, never does anything. The day I picked him up he was groggy from the anesthesia, and all he wanted to do was sleep. The next 3 days were a complete nightmare as he would howl, jump up and down in his pen, all things he'd never done before and the worst of it was at night. In hindsight, I think he was in pain and I was told to only give a pill a day and I think by night it had worn off and he was in pain, itchy, and he didn't know how to make it go away, so he acted out. That only lasted 3 days and then he was back to normal. The worst part during those 3 days wasn't the lack of sleep, or the howling and barking, it was not knowing really what was wrong with him and feeling powerless. I didn't know how to help him.

I don't think mine was a typical experience. Most after neuter threads I've read the only problem they've had was keeping their baby calm and not jumping and playing. I hope yours is much better than mine, but if your pup lets his dark side out, just remember, you did this for his well being, it'll only last a few days and then you're cuddly baby will be back. GOOD LUCK!
