Give pain medications as directed by the vet. Take Bear out to potty on a leash, and bring him right back in when he's done. No running, jumping, or playing. Rest him as much as possible. Make sure he has plenty of fresh water and food. Check his incision daily, and if it's red, swollen, warm to the touch, there is excessive discharge, and/or it's opened up, contact his vet right away. I hope this helps!
