Does anyone have a dog that has had more than 1 hernia? My Harley was born with a hernia and we had it fixed when he was about 6 months old...he just turned 1 last month. Over the weekend I noticed it was kind of bulging again in that area so we brought him to the vet. She's not sure if it's the same one that maybe came undone after she stitched it because he is very active or if it's another one.
He is scheduled to have it fixed in a couple weeks and she is going to neuter him at the same time. She said he needs to be crated and let out only on a leash for a week so the stitches hold....she is going to be very aggressive this time as it cannot be fixed again after this?!!
Actually we weren't going to neuter either dog until they were 18 months but she doesn't want him to have to go under again. And she strongly recommends neutering our 11 month old at the same time since he is already the dominate one to Harley.....
