Hello,
I got my 6 month old pup neutered today. He is 3.14 lbs.
He did great and when I picked him up, the vet didn't have a protective collar on him because they said "he wasn't licking."
Well, when we got home, I basically kept him in my lap all evening, but there were a couple of times I turned my head and
BAM, he was licking. I stopped him really fast but I hope it doesn't cause him infection. I'm just worrying myself sick
tonight about it.
I went by petsmart to buy a plastic collar and tried to put that on him after i caught him lick and he had a FIT. He started going crazy on the carpet trying to take it off. He got it off alright. Smart little boy.
I also had him micro-chipped, esp after the incident two nights ago, he was in the back yard and got out of the fence. Luckily, my husband found him wandering and put him back in the house.
If any body can reassure me about this licking, it would be greatly appreciated.
Carol
