Forum Rules | 1. Here we prefer clarity to agreement. Obviously not everyone is going to agree on a topic; here we prefer to talk out our differences in a respectful manner to ensure mutual understanding and respect. 2. Read the Stickies and Announcements. Each sub-forum may have specific rules which trump the Forum Rules in cases where there may be conflicting information. Read the rules of each board before you post so that you are clear on the expectations of the staff. 3. Respect ALL Staff and Admins. These people volunteer of their time and MUST be respected as well as their word adhered to. They are responsible for maintaining a free, open, clear and organized forum. Anyone found to be openly undermining any official ruling by a staff member will be warned. 4. Signatures: One picture only and no links. Images: To keep the forum looking neat and tidy, we ask that members insert just one picture only in their signatures. The picture should be no more than 200x500 pixels and should be of an appropriate subject, for example, your dogs and their names. Should you need assistance creating an appropriate signature, please PM an Admin and we would be happy to help! This is to ensure that signatures remain a welcome addition to our forum instead of a cumbersome distraction. Links: Hyperlinks in signatures--unless to a personal blog or photo stream of your dogs (like Flckr or Piscasa, for example)--are strictly prohibited. Please PM a staff member with any questions or concerns regarding this rule. |

| My husky was neutered 4 days ago, he is eating and drinking fine but won’t move around at all, a few steps then he circles back to the ground, whimpers and tries to get at the wound (unable to with inflatable cone), everything he does even to go to the toilet he is moving like this only a few steps then dropping and seeming in pain. Wound seems to be healing ok, is it normal for him to be acting like this not moving at all on day 4? He is getting once daily pain meds as prescribed by vet. Thank you  |

| Two reactions here: 1) What's the pain med and strength your vet has him on? It's possible he's so drugged that any movement is 'confusing'. It's just 'safer' for him to stay in one place. 2) It's possible that the neutering has a problem. At 4 days most of my dogs were needing restraints 'cause they wanted to be doing something.
I'd be having a talk with my vet .... _________________ “Properly trained, a man can be dog’s best friend.” Corey Ford |

| Thank you. He’s on metacam from the vet. It seems to settle him and allows him peaceful rest and sleep but it makes no difference to him trying to walk about. I think he’s also scared now of moving about too much, but certainly no question about him hurting judging by his actions |

| Time for a vet visit. At 4-5 days after you should be having to restrain him from doing things he shouldn't yet.
ETA: have you checked the stitches. By now they should be healing nicely, maybe a bit pink but definitely not red. Is it possible that the stitches are pulling and causing him pain? Red, btw, at this stage would indicate an infection ... something you'd definitely want the vet to look at.
