Dog cold after neutering

[laura301091]

Hi, we had our dog neutered today and we've noticed tonight that his ears and paws are very cold. Have checked his gums and they look normal but did notice his nose is dry. Should we be concerned or is this just from after getting neutered?

The anaesthetic will probably have sedated his circulation. Hopefully he is better this morning? Keep him warm and comfortable and call the vet if he does not seem right. Follow up consultations, after operations, are usually free unless extra procedure or medication is required.

Yea his paws and ears were still a bit cold this morning but he is fine now. Just coughing a bit but I'm hoping this is just from possibly having a tube in his throat?

Glad to hear he is better. Yes the cough will be due to the tube.
