When a dog is neutered does the SAC go away?
The scrotal sac is left intact, but it usually disappears within a few months. After surgery, your dog will be kept overnight to allow him to wake up quietly and completely from anesthesia in a monitored environment. You will be able to pick him up after 10 a.m. the following day.
How long does it take for the sack to shrink after neuter?
Normal post-operative swelling typically makes the scrotum appear full, perhaps even normal size, for about 24-48 hours after surgery. This is normal and the swelling typically subsides in due course and the scrotum begins to appear less full.

Why does my dog still have a sack after being neutered?
Should I be worried? If his sac looks like it has testicles in it, this is most likely due to swelling from the surgery. This is called a scrotal hematoma, and is fairly common after a neuter surgery. The swelling can definitely look like testicles, but its just fluid and blood clots from the procedure.
What happens to sack after neutering?
The scrotum is often swollen in the first few days after surgery, leading some people to wonder if the procedure was really performed. If the dog is immature at the time of neutering, the empty scrotum will flatten out as he grows. If he is mature at the time of neuter, the empty scrotum will remain as a flap of skin.
