Jack got neutered. - YorkieTalk.com Forums

So Jack just got neutered and he wont stop licking the area even with a cone on.....should I just take it off and try a onesie?

Another thing is he hasnt peed or pooped and its been since 3pm yesterday that he hasnt gone.

I need some advise on what to do with him. I am not used to them licking so much....

I am just a nervous mommy I guess.......

I had better luck using a onesie with Rebel. He also didn't poop until the next day after I got him home.

Good luck with Jack!

Jack just peed! Horray!

i know what you're going through. i cried when coco pooped and peed for the first time after neuter because i was so worried about him.

if he's eating and not pooping, try giving him some canned pumpkin; just plain pumpkin, nothing added.

im dreading it my joe has to go for the snip april 7th
i hope im doing the right thing and i am wondering about afterwards i have to go out to work and when i come home joe jumps and jumps high im worried he may burst his wound open
how is your baby doing with his stitches how many has he got
how long before he has a check up and how long to get stitches out
im so worried about him going

feeling your pain, Blaze was just neutered on Thursday and came home w/the lovely little cone on his head. I am way more upset about the whole thing then he is!

Just went thru it, Hot Rod got neutuered 5 days ago. He's been good about the stitches, licking every once in awhile. Been jumping up and down on sofa and wrestling with 9 week old pup!

I notice he gets tired more quickly. He slept for almost 2 days and was still a little groggy the 3 rd day.

Whelp, its been almost a day and half and Jack is pretty much back to being himself, even with his bad ears when he knows he shouldnt be doing something....

So he finally pooped and after that he is pretty much playful and back to himself!

He has internal, dissolving stiches so he doesn't have to get any out, thankfully.

He is still licking the area, and I had to take the cone off since it wasnt working anyways and he was getting to the area with it on. So I went out and bought a onesie.

He didnt want to move when I put it on, so I took that off too and will probably put it on when we go to bed tonight.

SO everything is getting better as the day goes on......

I just cant wait till its healed completely!

Thanks for all the comments, they have helped me TONS!

My Ozzy is getting neutered next month and I was wondering what size onesie you all got and how did you customize it? With just a hole for his tail and butt? What about if he has to pee? If some one could post a picture that would be great!! Thanks!

Jacksmama · 03-27-2008, 02:35 PM

Sorry took me so long to reply.....

I bought him a 3-6 months onesie and cut out the tail when I put it on so it would be in the right area. I didnt leave it on that long cause he wouldnt walk or even move. He got the hint from having it on for just a little while not to lick anymore. I would buy a three pack, so you have extras incase he soils one. Just keep it on here and there and they get the hint! They are too smart!

He is almost completely healed and its only been a week tomorrow.....

Here is his picture....

Would a belly band on lightly help with not licking themselves? after neuter. I have 2 months to go yet but just wondering?
