Hello,
My bulldoggie Kairos had palate surgery yesterday... we got him today and he is very drowsy and tired... I am worried because he threw up food and is so slow and sleepy... is this normal?
HELP

Yes, that is normal. Make sure not to give water for a few days...use ice chips. Also only do food a little at a time and soft for a few days.

It also depends on what they used to put him under. If they used ACE some bullies take longer to come around after it, so go slow with water and food. If he's still like that after being home 2 days I would call the vet and ask him.

awww I feel for you.. I think everyone gave you great advice. My bully ( who is 3) was also sick the past three days to I totally understand how you feel. I think the hardest part is that our babies can't talk to tell us how they feel. I am new here also and everyone is so very nice and very supportive.. Hope your bully feels better really soon! Take care

Karen and Duke

Our Chesty had soft palate surgery and his nose drilled out some a few years back. Our vet would not let him come home tell he was sure he was healed, about 4 or 5 days.... I remember going to "visit" him at the vet. and thinking he loved them more then me as he was king of the roost. They let him run loose in the back with the vets and the techs. So we never saw any problems when he came home he was already on soft food and water. I hope your baby is feeling better soon... Welcome to the site and can't wait for pictures.
