Tinge of blood in urine after spaying Our 7-1/2 month old Yorkie was spayed two days ago (Thursday) and tonite (Saturday) I noticed a tinge of blood in her urine. Is this normal? She's on one-tablet/day pain killer for 4 days (one more to go for tomorrow). She seems to be faring well considerably, with a healthy appetite, but walking with a hobble and not sitting upright as normal. She walks with a slight hunch, but I suspect that's all due to the surgery.
Can you please let me know if these are normal and if it persists, for how many days? Or do you advise that we rush her to the vet on an emergency basis or can this wait until we return to her Vet on Monday?
As I know from a friend who's undergone hysterectomy, a tad of blood in her urine is expected... does this apply to our lil' girl? ;o(
Thanks a lot for relieving us of worry.
