Health & WellbeingIs it okay to put a bandaid on my dogs spy insicion? I have her cone on but notcied she somehow got it off yesterday. As an extra percaution can i put a bandaid in it while i go out to run an errand and remove when i get back?
Hello, sorry to hear about Poochie. It may be safer to put a shirt on as the adhessive of the bandaid may cause too much movement at the incision line when being removed. A shirt and her e-collar should be sufficient to keep the incision covered and protected. Hope this helps and best of luck. If you do decide to place a bandage, then I would leave it on for 5 days before removing it so that the incision is not messed with too much. Additionally, make sure the bandaid is large enough so that there is no adhessive portion directly on the incision. Hope this helps and best of luck.
