I don't remember my vet asking if I wanted to pay extra for pain shots. If anything, they might have asked if I wanted to take some pain meds to take home in case they're in a lot of pain.
After the surgery, your pup will probably sleep for rest of the day. Some pups seem to feel "better" the very next day and will act like nothing happened. Others will take another day or so to be little more perky.
As long as you keep them from running around, jumping, licking the area, etc... He should be fine. If you ever feel that "something isn't right", call your vet and explain your concerns. |
