♥ Catherine My Love ♥ Donating Member | It probably will be a good idea to keep him in his crate so he doesn't move around too much at first anyway. As long as you monitor the incision, he should be okay by himself. Have you thought abotu running home over lunch to check on him, or having someone else check in on him during the day? I have never had a male need pain medication after neutering. But, you can ask your vet what he/she thinks. I've only gone through the process three times, and I know each time has been different. When we got our George neutered, he wanted to run and play as soon as we got home. I had to crate him for a day just so he'd take it easy!

| ^ Good advice. And Jackson was the same way. He was VERY groggy and out of it the first day I brought him home, but by the second day he was nearly himself again. The third day he was totally himself and was running around as if nothing happened. I tried to contain him and keep him chill for at least 4 days but by the 5th day, it was impossible and he knew his limits. If he didn't feel like playing, he would let the other dog know. Good luck, he will be fine! Also, something for you to (hopefully) look forward to. It's now been about 2 weeks since Jackson's neuter and he seems to have chilled out a lot. He was never an overly hyper dog before but he's definitely become better at night-time and will cuddle more!
