Our 13 month Border Terrier was neutered just under two weeks ago. Unfortunately he got a scrotal haematoma as a result of the surgery which is improving but still very much there at the moment. He’s still on painkillers.
He’s out and about for walks on the lead again now as advised by the vet but we have noticed he is being much more reactive with other dogs than we was before. Previously there was one French Bulldog he took massive issue with but otherwise would trot past other dogs unbothered and/ or do a bit of bottom sniffing and leave it at that. It’s not been with every dog but the past few days it feels like every second dog he is growling or barking at.
Is this normal? Will it settle down or should we be getting a dog behaviourist involved/ is there anything else we could do? We’re back at the vet for a checkup on Monday so I will ask them too but would be grateful for any experiences.
