Have your dog examined by a veterinarian to make sure she is
not having complications from her surgery.
Typically in the 5-7 days following abdominal surgery is when
complications are seen. She may just be
painful from her surgery and need more pain medication. Pain can definitely trigger vomiting. This is very common especially in the 1-4
days after a spay.
She needs to be checked to make sure she is not having any
internal bleeding or has developed an infection. Post-operative infections are most commonly
seen along the incision line and not in the abdominal cavity.
In the few days after a spay most dogs have a decreased
energy--this is normal. They are not
getting into as much mischief as a normal puppy. It is much less likely that she has eaten
something that has made her vomit or gotten into a "poison".
Your veterinarian can make sure there is no serious cause
for the vomiting then treat appropriately with pain medication or anti-vomiting
medications.
