Callie was spayed Aug 13th. The spay went fine. the healing went fine. then this past week we noticed a lump forming under the skin that moves back and forth. I thought it felt like a piece of plastic about 1/8" wide and 1/2" long.... like perhaps a clamp or something left behind? The vet said its just a piece of thread that hasn't dissolved.

Then today it looked like a blood blistered formed at the scar just above the lump. It burst (thanks to a hubby who poked and prodded a bit too much )

Attached is a video of it. I tried to get a photo, but it was impossible with a squiggling, squirming, panting puppy.


Anyone have any ideas as to what this might be? I honestly don't care if they left something behind -- admit it and repair your error!
