Our dog was spayed today. I guess I just don't remember 17 years ago when we had our last dog spayed, but I am a bit surprised by her needing to wear a collar for 12 days!
Since we brought her home 4 hours ago we haven't had the collar on, but have been watching her. A few times she bent over to lick something (might have been her vulva rather the wound, but not sure) but stopped when we shouted "no".
One website recommended bitter apple on the wound. Is that a reasonable thing to do, along with watching her? Or maybe we should just stick the collar on and let her get used to it for 12 days?
Any advice will be appreciated. Well, I mean constructive advice.
