Black Lab Mix's question about Perineal Urethrostomy

Question

My dog had this surgery a day ago and ever since he has had blood flowing down his legs and dripping into big puddles from his new place too pee from whenever he stand and walks. It looks a little like a waterfall of blood down his back half. Is this normal? He is a pretty big dog

Accepted Answer

That surgery can be a very bloody surgery, and they often do bleed fairly dramatically for a few days.  Since I can't see Lucky, it would be best to call your veterinarian and make sure that this is what they expected, but those can bleed quite a bit after surgery.
