I just got my dog neutered today. He won't move and is shaking a little. Is there anything that I can do to make him feel better?

Call your vet..I have had dogs fixed and never had them not move...minus when just home sleeping.....in fact I had a hard time keeping mine still.....how long has it been in hours and is it a toy breed? Call your vet no matter what they have after hours calls...even call a vet ER

That doesn't sound good at all. Call your vet asap.

I would still call my vet to be sure,..they usually schedule this for early AM and do not let the dog go home till most of the meds are OUT of their system....um I would hate for your dog to go into shock or bloat or something ..a call is well worth it IMO

Hi Esthers Dog Neutered

This adivce is probably too late but i will add it anyhow.

The shaking is normal...its most likely that the medication they gave him to sedate him is wearing off.

All the male dogs I have had would shake a bit and were uneasy on their feet when they tried to stand up for the first couple of hours. Our doberman that we had loved human food and on the day of his surgery we had cheese burgers on the coffee table. He would have normally ran over and try to eat them.. but he just stared at them.

Thanks everyone... My sweet doggie is doing better. He is still a little languished, but he is moving and eating more.
