Unfortunately there are no pictures attached to your post, so I can't see what the incision looks like at the moment. If his vet says it's going to be fine, then I would trust his vet. It's good the area is clean, dry, and closed. I'd be worried if there were signs of infection, or if the incision was open. I hope this helps.
