I'm after a good first aid kit for my dogs - for cuts, antibiotics etc. any recommedations on where to get it from?

Hiya but, i dont think that there is a first aid box for a dog, i dont know if i speak on behalf of anyone else here, but what i do i just pick up the odd bits and pieces, majority of them are the stuff we use. anti inflammatories, antiseptic spray, tweezers, penicillin, sudo cream, an a few clean rags to clean them up with just general stuff like that, you dont need to buy the top of the range stuff. Just gather a few bits and pieces, if you dont want to buy anything, warm salted water on cuts etc is a good solution.

This is my med kit for when am out this just stays in my car so i never

forget it, it has bandages and vet wrap in back pocket... i also have a

few litres of water, and that reminds me i need a new spray bottle for

washing the dogs down

Just come in from my kennel after patching up my bitch from this mornings outing. She took a bit of peppering, I noticed I needed to stock up on the penicillin/amoxicillin, which comes in really handy to fight off any infections. Have a look at Earth Dog Running Dog (No 207) pg 38 dog care product advert. It pays to be prepared.
