beast 1,884 Posted February 25, 2014 Report Share Posted February 25, 2014 for small cuts and grazes i give a good wash when the wound is fresh then leave the dog to clean it if it can reach. The solution is 9 grams of sodium chloride (NaCl) dissolved on water, to a total volume of 1000 ml. As 1 grams NaCl occupies 0.18 level teaspoons, 9 grams NaCl is 1.62 level teaspoons. The mass of 1 millilitre of normal saline is 1.0046 gram at 22 °C.[2][3] The molecular weight of sodium chloride is approximately 58.5 grams per mole, so 58.5 grams of sodium chloride equals 1 mole. Since normal saline contains 9 grams of NaCl, the concentration is 9 grams per liter divided by 58.5 grams per mole, or 0.154 mole per liter. Since NaCl dissociates into two ions – sodium and chloride – 1 molar NaCl is 2 osmolar. Thus, NS contains 154 mEq/L of Na+ and Cl−. It has a slightly higher degree of osmolarity (i.e. more solute per litre) than blood (However, if you take into account the osmotic coefficient, a correction for non-ideal solutions, then the saline solution is much closer to isotonic. Osmotic coefficient of NaCl is about 0.93; therefore 0.154 × 1000 × 2 × .93 = 286.44) Nonetheless, the osmolarity of normal saline is a close approximation to the osmolarity of NaCl in blood. One litre of 0.9% Saline contains: 154 mEq of sodium ion = 154 mmol/L 154 mEq of chloride ion = 154 mmol/L or for us normal people, thats about a teaspoon of salt in a pint of water 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
leegreen 2,101 Posted February 25, 2014 Report Share Posted February 25, 2014 If the dog can reach it, nothing. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
sandymere 8,261 Posted February 26, 2014 Report Share Posted February 26, 2014 Warm water from the tap. I'll admit I put a little salt in it but that's just habit, its what I've always done but plain water as good for a small cut if not infected. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Sirius 1,358 Posted February 26, 2014 Report Share Posted February 26, 2014 (edited) Same as everyone else clean water with some salt in it, and even better let the dog lick it. Edited February 26, 2014 by Sirius Quote Link to post Share on other sites
airbourne 128 Posted February 26, 2014 Report Share Posted February 26, 2014 HYDROGEN PEROXIDE no more than 10% it will get any crap out good stuff but don't put it round their eyes. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
