Just wondering if my pets incision is healing normally. It seems to be scabbing over but I can’t discerne what color the discharge she is having is. It isn’t a vast amount and I don’t smell a odor and she isn’t in pain

I think the incision looks OK. A bit irritated but OK. I wouldn't be overly worried at this time. I suggest you put a THIN layer of Neosporin over the incision 2-3 times per day for the next few days. If you are worried at any time how it is healing you are better off having the vet that did the surgery check the incision for you. They usually do this at no cost. Hope this helps. Best wishes.
