Question

Hello, back in April of 2020 I spent around $400 to get my dog neutered. After he was fixed he wasn’t peeing right, he still doesn’t. Sometimes he lifts his leg (which I know is normal for males) but sometimes he squats, walks as he’s peeing and he even pees when he gets scared which he used to never do. A few months later we went to the breeder and ended up buying his sister. My dog is now a little over a year old and his sister is 6-7 months and we think she’s pregnant. Her nipples are enlarged and she appears to be nesting. If she is pregnant do you think the vet could have messed up while trying to get my dog neutered?

Answer

I suggest that you take your dog to another veterinarian to confirm that the dog is neutered and to discuss other health and behavioral concerns. I also suggest that you take your female dog to a veterinarian to determine whether she is pregnant or is ill. Time is of the essence.
