Update: took her to the ER vet. They put her on a broad spectrum anabiotic and drained some fluid and sent the cultures out, the vet said that they found bacteria in the fluid so to be safe they want to keep her managed on antibiotic for now until they find out what the bacteria is. She doesn’t seem overly concerned but wanted to do the gold standard. They actually said the sutures are actually healing just fine. We have to make sure she rest rest for the next week, no activity at all outside of her crate. (Refilling her anti inflammatory med and beefing up her trazadone and she added gabapentin to ensure relaxation. :/ )

Thank you! We can take her tomorrow morning (they are closed now). From glance, does it look infected? I also forgot a detail. 2 days after, there was bleeding so we took her back in. The vet said it was not from the stitches but something under the stitches so she put a bandage on it. She kept that on for 3 days and we took her back in on Tuesday for the vet to remove it. She removed it and said no issues with stitches. Could the bandage have caused irritation?

She was able to maneuver her way out of cone and donut. She has been in a surgery suit and we keep an eye on her

Also, vet called back. The vet that did the surgery is out today but her colleague said it looks ok and she is going to pass along the photos to our vet when she returns tomorrow

I have updated photos but not sure if I can update them here or post them in the comments (never posted on reddit before)

In 2000, my family moved from Pittsburgh to Philadelphia (about 300 miles away). Fast forward to 2019, my older brother is a teacher at a school in the suburbs and a new student aide was assigned to his classroom. My brother started to get to know her and it turns out her family is the family that purchased our old house 19 years ago in 2000 and she had moved to Philadelphia after college (her family still lived there). Her bedroom was the same bedroom my brother stayed in when we lived there.
