[littleLABgirl]

My dog "Little Girl" just got spayed. She got spayed wed. its now mon. and now she is starting to accumulate a lump where the stitches are. I called the vet and have an app. for tomoro morn. but she is in a kennel and is limited to exerciese so i know that cant be the reason. Has anyone else ever experienced this. please post replies ASAP

Ariel had small lumps where some of the stitches didn't dissolve. They looked like little white heads. Is there any redness? Ariel was done with laser.

I remember one of my females had a lot of scar tissue a few months following. No infection just a hardness that eventually went away.

How is the dog otherwise? Eating, alert?

Bernice had a small lump where the incision was, but it went away. The vet said that was normal. If you have ever had a deep cut and feel it there would be a lump where the skin is trying to heal. If you see anything funky like redness and swelling around the incision then i would skeedaddle to the vet asap. good luck

My little Bombo got spayed about a year ago and she developed a lump. It was where the stitches were pulling on the skin. She's an active one is Bombo, so it was thoroughly cleaned up and within a few days it'd gone down and was back to normal!
Get well soon Little Girl!
