I was able to see the first picture posted.
What was the reason for the amputation? How long ago was the surgery? The reason I ask is, depending on if certain tumors were involved that can impact the "shape" of the incision depending on their location, etc. Also, there can be swelling making the skin appear to be "swollen" around the sutures.
Regardless, I am not a Vet and not giving Vet advice. HOWEVER, My suggestion would be to post under. https://tripawd.....ask-a-vet/ forum and post that picture there. "Dr Pam" is a REAL Vet who graciously volunteers her expertise here and she can share her insight. While waiting for her response, you can also scroll through and you'll see photos of various incisions
Look forward to hearing more about your pup.
