My dog, Princeton, a 18-month-old German shepherd/husky mix, was neutered on Thursday morning. Tonight, he jumped over the gate and his incision opened. He finished taking Previcox today and is on Trazadone 200mg every 12 hours. What should I do about the open incision, and is this situation emergent?
