We had a really hard time keeping our girl quiet for any length of time. They recommended 10 days, I think we made it 5. She was pretty much back to her normal self the next day.
The best thing that we did was to invest in an indoor xpen, and at least she had a little bit of room and didn't have to sit in her crate all day. Unfortunately, she wanted to be running and jumping right away, so we had to put her in the pen any time we weren't watching her like a hawk.
We also used a baby onesie (little baby outfit that buttons at the bottom) to keep her from licking or biting at her incision. It worked really well, and she didn't have to have the cone.
Is the onesie really work? how can she pee pee when wearing onesie?
Also, after the heat, you have to wait about 3 months before you can spay the dog. This is due to waiting for the whole heat cycle to be complete.
