Precautions for pet neutering surgery:

1. The appropriate time for pet sterilization. Usually the best time to neuter is before the pet's first estrus or 4 to 5 days after the end of estrus. But try not to choose the hot summer to prevent postoperative bacterial growth and wound infection;

2. Carry out preoperative examination to evaluate the pet's own health status and whether it has the conditions for surgery. Make sure your pet is healthy at the time of surgery. Some pets with cardiopulmonary insufficiency may be at risk of anesthesia allergy and death during the operation. In addition, pets are not suitable for surgery during estrus.

3. No water or food for 6 hours before the operation. Otherwise, the food in the pet's stomach may flow back into the trachea during the operation, causing suffocation.

4. Do not take the pet home when it is not awake. It is best to observe it in the clinic first to prevent accidents. After arriving home, choose a comfortable and clean nest and rest in a ventilated place.

5. Pets are recommended to be hospitalized for 7 days after surgery to prevent them from being active and causing wound tearing or bacterial infection.

6. Wear an Elizabethan ring to prevent them from licking their wounds.

7. Feeding can be done 6 hours after the sterilization operation.

8. Because after the sterilization operation, the dog’s appetite will increase due to body hormones, and it is easier to gain weight. However, the owner does not need to deliberately feed some nutritional cream, as long as the dog food is fed normally. Yes, but pay attention to the amount of food to prevent the dog from becoming overweight.
