spay question Daisy was spayed on Wed. Everthing went fine. (whew!) But she seems constipated. Any suggestions? I've given her yogurt. Also, how long until I can bathe her? THanks for any suggestions. |
Has she gone at all since the spay? If not, defn. call the vet asap, okay? If so, I'd still call and ask about it, bc it can be an issue that needs be addressed bc of the spay - you don't want her straining against those stitches. You might try giving some canned pumpkin - perhaps mix in a bit of oil and/or butter - *and* make her drink more water by taking a small bowl of water, add karo or honey to make it "sweet water" - so she'll hydrate. As for bathing, you have to wait for now. You could use a baby wipe or something if you need to clean her up, gently. :) |
you can either mix half a tsp of metamucil or a tsp of canned pumpkin in her food. This should get things moving along. What goes in must come out. sometimes the anesthesia can cause constipation so try to ease things along first. if it doesn't work then call the vet. |
They told me to wait 2 weeks before bathing.... i had one stinky dog. it helped having onesie on her. when she stunk or got it dirty i changed onesies |
Thanks so much for the info. My sweet hubby went to the store and bought some pumpkin - and everything came out fine!! We sure get excited about poop around here..... |
