My four year old Papillon underwent surgery yesterday to remove a large bladder stone. He has been urinating on his bedding, a lot. Does anyone know if this is typical right after surgery, or if I should be concerned. Thanks for any insight. *Munchkin*

None of the vets in this area cleans the skin of a dog prior to giving an injection. In the old days when alcohol was the only agent available, I can see where this might not help. However, with the availability of iodine containing agents, I do not see why they would not be used. A friend of...
