Because she has just undergone major surgery and anybody would be a bit swollen. If it lasts more than a couple days you should ask a vet.

How do they abort unwanted puppies before the dog has them?

Actually, since the dog is not spayed at this time, they would simply abort/remove the puppies at the same time the dog is being spayed. It typically does not cost any more $$ than the cost of the surgery alone.

What does it mean when your dog's vagina is red and swollen?

If the dog is not spayed then it is most likely certain the dog is in heat. This is stage one. In just a few days she will start to produce a red discharge, this is stage two. When the dog stops producing the discharge she is in stage three and is ready to mate. It is important not to mate a dog till her second heat!! It is detrimental to her health and her offspring.

Why is your dog shivering after being spayed?

I just got my dog spayed (2 days ago, actually) and she is currently suffering from this problem. From what I've gathered, this can be caused by: 1) Stress or pain. She's probably very scared. 2) The anethesia wearing off, just after getting spayed. 3) A side-effect from pain medication (giving to you for home-dosage). I've given this to my dog every 8-12 hours since being spayed. 4) She could be cold; I wrapped my dog in a blanket on my lap, and after a while she stopped trembling. At two days, I would be concerned about infection if I saw shivering as this can be due to a temperature. Remember that a dog's normal temp is 100.5 - 102.5 Fahrenheit (38 - 39.2 C). Especially if it persists, see a vet, but always better safe that sorry.
