  When Bella had her laser surgery spay, the vet told us to (1) keep her from licking her stitches and incision, and (2) no jumping on the couch or bed, or stair climbing or excessive physical activity.  Other than that, we did not have to keep her restrained.  She was her full energy self within two days.  If there is any possibility that the other dogs will roughhouse or lick her stitches, I'd keep her separated.  Oh, also the vet did not send Bella home with any pain medication.  I had to ask for some Metacam the next day.  She was a lot happier with the Metacam.
