So, I'm worried about my pups incision. She was spayed on Monday (it's now Thursday) but I've never had a female dog before. I'm curious as to whether Meka's incision is normal, if its infected, and what other's looked like after a certain amount of days. Everyone keeps telling me its fine, but I want to make sure!

The incision doesn't look bad--a little red at the bottom, but not inflamed. Was the surgery done without stitches, because I don't see any? By now, I'm sure you've talked to the vet, so let us know what the vet says.
When our Bella was spayed, she had stitches. She never licked or bit at them directly, but she tried to scoot on them across the carpet--they must have been itchy. Also, she was much more physically active than the vet recommended. Despite all this, she healed up perfectly. I hope all goes well for Meka!
