How long ??

[Cocosmammy123]

Hi guys. How long should I wait before bathing coco. She had her stitches out yesterday after being spayed she's stinky lol x

Did you ask your vet could you bath her? Usually they'll give you a time frame. And because the stiches are out, you may be allowed to. I'd call your vet to be sure.

I agree!

I'd give her a bath, just don't rub the incision area, stinky isn't good and if she's dirty, she's carrying bacteria

I would check with the vet as well just to be on the safe side.

Vet said as long as a don't get much in the wound should be fine. Her paws get really smelly easily any advice they have red stains in them. ?? Is that normal

Red stains and smell like Fritos .... yeast! There is a thread, I will try to find and post it... but it is 'pickled paws', great treatment for yeasty paws. Also, try to remove white potato from the die, it adds to the problem. My girls, Banks - big yeast issues, I switched to Fromm Pork and Peas a month ago... almost all issues are gone

I agree with all the great advice you already got. Always best to ask your vet first if in doubt. I had Blossom spayed when she was 7 months old, and I bathed her a week after her surgery, and she was fine.
