Hi all,
So my 8 month old golden retriever was diagnosed with Hip Dysplasia a couple of months back for which we were suggested get the FHO surgery done. He finally had his surgery 4 full days ago (excluding the day of the surgery) and he seems to be seeping a little blood every time he tries to go potty or sit back down from his stitches. Now, I have taken him to the vet before posting here, and his surgeon has said that it’s some minor seeping and nothing of concern and that I should not fret too much about it. But it’s been over 24 hours that this has been going on for, so I’m a little worried at this point. He has always had his E-collar on when not directly supervised, and is in no position to lick or scratch his incision. Any help/advice would be great!
