Stitches from tail docking How long does it normally take for the stitches to fall out after having your puppies tails docked? |
Don't they usually do the dissolvable stitches for these? If not and it's regular stitches, it will be two weeks, and you may have to take them back to the vet to get them out or pull them out yourself. |
It takes about a week or two.My babies get a hard scab or ball on the end of their tail and then the ball just falls off.kind of like a babies umbilical cord. |
I dock myself and don't use stitches. My vet somes to the house and checks on my girls now and then and I have never had a problem.( Praise the Lord !) |
They do still have the hard scab like balls on them. I just thought those would have fallen off by NOW. They are almost 4 weeks old. The vet says not to do anything about them though. |

So no help here. I seen puppies with the lil scabs on their tails of a friend. But I dont know how long it takes to fall off |
Sorry I have no answer. But tail docking is banned here, so I have never had the option. Which am very happy about. |
At what age are you guys docking? I don't get these hard balls on mine. I dock at 2-3 days. I'm just interested in when everyone else does it |
