Some degree of discharge may be expected, especially if Princess is overly active. Monitor for lethargy, loss of appetite, odor, redness, or changes in amount or appearance of the discharge. Keep an e-collar (cone) on Princess to prevent licking. Avoid excessive running jumping and rough play. If you are concerned, have her rechecked sooner than Tuesday. A culture of the discharge can be submitted to diagnose infection.
