she wears that cone/lampshade thing around her head and hates it.shes always banging into things.it seems like shes so depressed.this is her second after surgery.she wants to play but then tries to run around so i have to put her back in the crate.i dont want to risk her stiches coming out.when will she be fully healed.i really miss my old spirited pup.

I would take the cone off except for times you can't watch her closely. I have had plenty of females spayed that never wore one of those and never had a problem. You can put gold bond powder on her stitches area if she seems to be itching but I would take the cone off.

It's good that you put her back in the crate. Love on her, alot As much as you can. Dogs are usually calm in mornings, so as soon as you wake up, you should sit down or lay with her. Show her that you love her and that she is cared for and she will do the same back. You will both enjoy it.

duh she just had surgery. she shouldn't be playing yet. leave the cone on until safe to take off.
