First bath after neutering? - YorkieTalk.com Forums

Choco got neutered last Tuesday, and it has been about 10 days.
He has fully recovered and everything seems to be back at normal.
Would it be OK to bathe him this coming Sunday, which would be the 13th day since his neuter surgery?

I would think so, I gave Harry a bath on day 15 after his surgery. and he loved it.

My vet said it was fine to bathe after the stitches were removed but I waited till the 10th day

Harry only had stiches inside, they used skin glue in the ouside of the small incision.
so I waited 15 days... better safe than sorry...LOL

Hi there, Rambo was neutered on March 29 and I just finished bathing him. He was sooo happy.

Thank you, all!
It's his bath day today and I will be using Splash and Shine for the first time. So excited!
