Holistic physical therapist for pets and people, Sally Morgan, explains that immediately after surgery, “The dog needs to be kept quiet, but this does not mean he needs to be confined in a tiny crate.” While excessive movement and outdoor games should be off-limits in the beginning stages of recovery for dogs, there are plenty of other fun and engaging activities that will keep your pooch occupied while he recuperates.
