Can my dog exercise after surgery?

Exercising after surgery depends on the kind of surgery your dog has undergone. A routine surgery like spay or neutering will mean a faster recovery, whereas a complex surgery like hip replacement might mean a slower and lengthier recovery process. Post-surgery, pets must take a few days to rest and recuperate. Off-leash exercises must be avoided on days immediately following the surgery. It is always advisable to seek a veterinary opinion regarding post-surgery care. Our veterinarians are always happy to answer any post-surgical care concerns before and after the procedure.

How long does it take for surgical anesthetics to wear off?

Most anesthetics today are incredibly advanced and wear off quickly. The anesthesia might cause drowsiness, whining, tiredness, or disorientation, which wears off within 12 to 24 hours post-surgery.
