My 7 years old female was spayed 3 days ago and now she seems to be in pain. What can I buy to give her?

Unfortunately, there are no human OTC medications that would be safe for a dog that underwent surgery so recently. I would recommend calling your vet to see if they can prescribe something, or have Josie evaluated by an emergency vet. You can try to use an ice pack wrapped in a towel for 15 minutes several times a day, and encourage walking around the house, but no running or jumping.
