Best Answer

In the vast majority of cases, no - the surgeon should have been controlling bleeding throughout the surgery to minimize blood loss and an IV with isotonic saline should have been in place throughout many surgical operations. However, in some cases based upon the medical history of the dog and the specific operation, plasma may be necessary to restore clotting factors and extracellular proteins directly in the blood stream. In dogs this is often an expensive procedure, so it is typically done only when absolutely medically necessary and with the owner's permission.
