Hi Orange C.
The pet's activities should be restricted for the first week or so following surgery. Dogs should be walked on a leash and not allowed to run or roam. Pets should be protected from stressful environments (e.g., excitement, extreme temperatures). After the first week, the animals can resume their normal activities.

If the pet has external sutures or staples, they are removed by the veterinarian, usually 10 to 14 days after surgery. Call the veterinarian if there are any problems or questions.

Check with your vet. Normally they want they stitches out before you let them exercise heavily or get wet.

My female golden unexpectedly pulled the leash out of my hand and went tearing off and jumped off a 3 foot retaining wall two days after surgery when she saw some birds. Luckily, no damage - could have killed her. I feel your pain.

You need to wait until at least 10 days after surgery.
