So glad that he is doing better, my daughter's maltese had a rough time after being neutered but my peke Yoshi has no problems at all, you just never know. They just need some extra tlc for a few days..

It is pretty common for dogs to have a rough time when they first come out of the anesthetic. That is why the vet should make sure the dog is fully out of it before they send him home.

It sounds like he is doing better now. He should not have much pain from here on out. Hopefully he will be a lot better tomorrow. Poor guy. I think they just should have kept him a little longer and maybe made sure he was warm and comfortable as he came out of it.

I agree. Judging from the hour of your post, they released him very early. I had to drop Rylee off at 8am to have her spayed and wasn't allowed to pick her up until between 4:30 and 5pm. He probably was still coming out of the anesthetic. Poor baby...........I'm sure he is starting to come around now! Just for the record, it took Rylee quite a long time for the first pee!

When my guy was neutered, he also had to spend all day at the vet and they even discussed the possibility of him staying all night depending on how he responded. Now he also had baby teeth removed as well but.... we got updates through out the day and they wanted to make sure he would eat and potty before they said we could pick him up LATE afternoon (4:30) - he was there at 7:30 am.
