My dog had spay surgery 5 days ago. Is her incision healing normally?

Question

My dog had her spayed surgery five days ago, but I’m not sure if her wound is getting better or not, can you please take a look and give me some suggestions? She drinks and eats as normal. Thank you. Pet's info: Dog | German Shepherd | Female | 1 year and 2 months old | 6 lbs

From what I can see in the photo, this looks like a pretty normal spay incision. :) You can use a warm washcloth to gently clean off the crusty bits. I don't see any redness or swelling around the incision, and no evidence of bleeding or drainage. Feel free to post another photo once you've cleaned it off, so that we can get a better look at the actual incision.
