I'm not sure if it's different with boys. It's about pulling the stitches if they stretch/are too active.
I thought we were in trouble too, but thankfully it's been fairly easy going thanks to the sedation drugs (one is a pain killer that can cause drowsiness, but the other is just Trazodone).
I would ask your vet specifically for the Trazodone or something similar to help with the activity level if they don't already plan to give you some, especially if you're worried Mochi will want to be active!
Just want to include a picture. Because I love sharing her pictures haha these are right after the spay when heading to the car after picking her up...and later in her pen at home (unusual for her as I mentioned)
So far so good! Oh, one last thing they might not mention: don't be shocked if your pup whines a bit in the hours post surgery. They aren't in pain, but are disoriented/confused, I guess. They warned us, and ours did whine here and there in a way she hasn't before out of the blue.

Good luck!
