The cost for stitches on a dog can vary widely based on factors such as the location of the injury, the complexity of the procedure, and the veterinary clinic's pricing. On average, you can expect to pay between $100 and $300 for stitches, including the examination and anesthesia if needed. Additional costs may arise if there are complications or if follow-up care is required. Always consult your veterinarian for a specific estimate based on your dog's needs.
What else can I help you with?
Is there anything safe you can put on the stiff stitches after spaying to keep them from sticking to the dog's skin?
Sometimes when the vet has spayed the dog they can often end the stitching (a knot) leaving a piece of the stitch too long that can dig into the dog's belly. Either you can cut off the extra or take the dog back to the vet (there should be no additional cost for this) and have them check the stitches out. Stitches don't stick to the skin, but are sewn in. The vet would have told you when to bring the dog back to have the stitches removed. If the wound looks good and the dog is irritated by the stitches (each dog, just like a human can heal quickly or slowly) perhaps it's time for the dog to have the stitches out. See your vet right away!
