My pup got fixed July 16th, 2021 and I was just wondering if it looks okay and like it is healing correctly. It start leaking a little bit of clear fluid but it doesn’t stink and doesn’t seem too red.

Hello and thank you for contacting PetCoach. A few drops of clear liquid leaking from the incision is normal for healing wounds. As long as the wound is not open, does not feel tender or hot to touch and Nova is doing OK there is no need to worry.
You should clean the wound with boiled, warm water and cotton buds to make sure the incision stays closed and does not get infected. It should be fully healed soon.
