Pet Recovery expectations? My 12year old lab, whose very energetic and mobile, is having surgery on Wednesday. He’s recently been diagnosed with soft tissue sarcoma on a front leg and we are electing to remove mass. We have consulted with the boarded surgeon in our state and feel confident about the surgery. How should I prep for recovery? Dog beds all over the house? Baby gates? I have purchased stairs for our bed and a ramp for my SUV. He’s 90lbs and I can’t lift him up onto things.

I'd just be careful not to lave him alone as much in the beginning. Especially the first few days. If complications are going to arise, you'll want to be nearby to see them.

That's amazing! Sounds like your pup will be in good hands. I'm prepping for a surgery for my dog as well, and I know how stressful it is. So good luck and hope for a speedy recovery for your dog!!

I think you're doing everything well. Your dog will not be his energetic self of course. Just give him a lot of care and affection for especially the first couple weeks and make sure that someone is there
