Is this normal?

Autumn had a lump after her spay too. It was right on the incision line. I was told its common and will go away in a week or so and it did. Just keep an eye on the bumps and hopefully they will be gone soon.

I'm sorry I dont have any advice or info, but poor Beenie. I hope you get rid of those bumps soon!!!

I don't remember Lacey having anything like that, but it's been awhile since she was spayed. I hope whatever it is goes away soon.

Hi Beeniesmom! Its been a while since we have been in touch!

I would definitely keep an eye on the lumps. While they could be a pimple, they could also be a number of other things. Do the lumps bother her? There is a possibility she could have a hernia where she was spayed. It could also be a cyst. Sometimes dogs do develop lumps after surgery and they are nothing to worry about, especially if Beenie is unbothered by them. I would say that if they have not gone away by next week or continue to worry you, consult another vet. Its better to be safe than sorry.

Best wishes.

Thank you HollywoodNVegas.
I am taking her to the vet again in half an hour (11 am appointment).
I really need to hear it again from them that she is doing fine.
The lumps look bigger and are harder today.
She now has 3 of them, under the skin.

Just got back.
The vet said that Beenie is having a reaction to the internal stiches.
She said that if the lumps didn't start to go down in a month, they will have to open her again.

Oh goodness no, I hope they don't have to open her back up again. We're sending Beenies lumps tons of "go away by yourself" thoughts.
