Hi everybody and welcome back to Relax My Dog today me and Milo here are going
to be talking about how to look after your dog after surgery now many dogs have to
go into surgery for many different reasons and you guys might want to learn
a little bit on how you can care for them when they have come home now it's
obvious that every single post-operative care that you have to
give your dog is it not a standard procedure every single dog is different
and will require different needs so we're going to be giving sort of an
overall on what you should be doing for your dog and how you might have to care
for them now before we begin definitely do go down below to the
comments and let me know has your dog ever gone in for any surgeries we
absolutely love to hear what you guys have to say at Relax My Dog so
definitely do let us know down below in the comments
now post-operative care will depend on your dog their age their condition and
also what type of surgery they are going for so it's very important to not take
this video as a step-by-step guide on what you should do with your pet it's
definitely something to look at as an overall basis and to think about whether
that specific one is important for your dog now it's very very important to know
as well that your dog will be extremely sleepy about 12 to 24 hours after their
surgery so definitely don't think they're going to be their playful selves because
they really are not and but definitely do keep an eye on them during this time
because like I say they will be sleepy they might not want to eat may not be
allowed to eat so this is also something to consider that don't be worried
straight after their surgery they will not be their usual self and you
shouldn't really expect them to be I'm sure if you were to go for surgery
you wouldn't be yourself 12 to 24 hours after so definitely do it take that into
account our first top tip is to definitely go and ask your vet any
specifics that you need to be performing for your dog obviously they all know
what specific surgery your dog has had and what after care they require so that
is definitely a first top tip but go over to your vets give them a call ask them
what requirements they need to have there might need medication etc.
so definitely do give them a call or they probably will speak to you after their
dog surgery anyway our second top tip is that that confinement is important you
want your dog to do as little walking as possible obviously if they start to walk
they may start to stretch their wounds meaning that they could break the
stitching and therefore the recovery will be a lot longer so confinement is
important even though this time you want to help your dog and be very close to
them it kind of is important for you not to be to a point because you don't want
any sort of accidents to happen number three is all about home remedies
I'm sure you guys know that once you do take your dog into surgery you are given a
lot of medication to give your dog after surgery and also you might be able to
find there are lots of home remedies to do online as well it's very important to
make sure you are researching the remedies ask the vets if you should
be doing them for your pet and to just generally make sure that there's nothing
harmful for your dog your dog might have allergies to certain remedies etc so
definitely do consult your vet at any given point number four is to
check your dog's incision this again is very very sort of hit and miss because
some vets will tell you not to go near it
however some vets will tell you to check it on a regular basis if you are meant
to check it on a regular basis make sure you're washing your hands every single
time you're going near that area because obviously at this time it will be very easy for
your dog to catch any sort of infections so this is also very very important that
you wash your hands and you stay extra clean around that area number five is to
comfort your pets obviously within the first few days definitely do let them
have that confinement experience but also after that time make sure you're
comforting them make sure you getting them their favorite treat making them their
favorite meal buying them their new toy just basically comforting your pet I'm
sure at this time your pet may hate you a little bit because I'm sure Milo
looks like he hates me right now but your pet might be hating you at that
moment because they think it's all your fault and you've done that to them
so definitely do comfort them and make them feel a little bit better well that is it
