My lab 5 1/2 months got neutered yesterday,now he doesn't want to eat and drinks very little water,is this normal?

Recovery is usually 2-3 days, but keep a close eye on him for possible infection signs of infection are: * Fever of 102 degrees Fahrenheit or greater * Discharge from the incision * Bleeding from the incision * Swelling or redness at the incision * Refusal to eat or drink water * Painful urination * Lethargy for more than 2 days after operationIf your animal displays any of these symptoms, it may mean he has an infection. To prevent further complications, consult your veterinarian. Infections can usually be managed through a series of antibiotic medications.

He's still in shock, and dreaming about all those generations of puppies he's not going to father. He'll be fine soon, when his cojones are just a distant memory.

He is in some discomfort but should get back to normal soon. Whenever my dog went through some trama, even going someplace different, he woudn't eat for 2 to 3 days.

Well he is acting a bit more alive now,but still eats little and water,he is starting to chew on some of his toys also,he did go for a ride and was acting alright with me. Thank you for your reply,I worry to much,,love my dogs. He did poop a little and pee a bunch of times,but thanks again Kritiper.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
