Pet's info: Dog | Chihuahua | Female | spayed | 5 years and 4 months old | 6 lbs
My dog was spayed last Wednesday, and Friday when we we're at my sisters she started peeing on the couch and the floor instead of her pad. Would that be normal after surgery?

Hello. No, this is not normal. This could be an indication of ongoing pain, or she just may have developed a urinary tract infection. It is best to contact your veterinarian who did the surgery & see if any additional medication or treatments may be necessary for Cheerio.
