He will be a little under the weather for a day or two. A little sore. KUDO'S to you for a great decision on so many levels!

He might be a little groggy from the aesthesia, but usually the vets wont let them go home unless they think it is safe. Usually there are some pain meds that you can get for them at home. Please do not feed him or give him water once he is home, until at least 24 hrs after surgery and then in small amounts until 48 hrs after surgery. Too much to quickly can make him vomit. Also if they send him home with an e-collar please leave it on him for as long as they say (usually 7-10 days) because when he licks it he can break the sutures and cause you to have to take him in again. No fun. And dont think he wont lick, they all do because it is sore and want to make it better. We recommended that the only time you take it off is when you can watch him completely while it is off. He should be fine and thank you for being responsible and getting him neutered.

Type in your city and state (ex: phoenix, az) + 'low cost vaccinations' into Google. There is usually a low cost clinic in most cities or one near by if you live in a smaller town. My dog got his recent round of vaccinations for $30 (rabies, parvo, & 4 in 1). Show your parents the price of the cheapest clinic. If they still say no, raise the money yourself. If it has little to do with money and they just want to be stubborn, let them know that if your dog is at risk for parvo (which kills within a matter of days and is transmitted through the air), rabies (if you are caught without a rabies license they can take your dog away, and if your dog ever gets into a fight or bites someone they can take him away as well). If none of this is working out, most places (even the smallest towns) will have a feed store or pet store that has vaccinations you can purchase for a low cost and administer yourself. If it does not come with instructions you can surely find some on Google or even Y!A. If you don't like needles, just remember that this dog is your responsibility and your fear does him no good. These can probably be ordered online as well. Please get your dog vaccinated. There are always cost effective ways and it could save his life. If you cannot afford even 30$ for vaccinations, you really ought to consider giving your dog up for adoption. You have to put his needs before your wants. Good luck and feel free to e-mail me if I might be of any help.

Congratulations on a smart choice! He will have a happier, healthier, longer life with this decision!
He will need to be kept quiet for the remainder of the day and limited for the following week. No jumping! No stairs, jumping on your bed, etc. If you have to, keep him in a small room, especially when you are not home! He will probably still be groggy and unsteady. Offer a small amount of food and make sure he can keep it down before offering any more. Keep an eye on the incision and watch for any swelling, redness, seeping, bleeding or fever.
He will probably surprise you and act like nothing happened! Again, congrats!

Numb for a while, groggy all day, sore most of the day, and he could be nauseated.
Also, the anesthetic a tendency to drop their body temperatures down so make sure he is warm and don't let him run around out side and play.

He is going to feel lethargic... tired.. so let him sleep as much as he wants and have water available for him... Poor thing.. I do commend you for neutering.. Wouldn't it be GREAT if all people did that.. It would reduce t remendously the massive amouint of cruelty to animals.

Although the advice above is usually true...my cockapoo-pug came home as if nothing had happened...even pulled the cone off no matter how tight we tied it!

He'll be much quieter than normal - won't feel like eating most likely - don't try to force him. Encourage him to drink water if you can. Let him sleep and recover. By tomorrow, he should be much more his normal self.
