Advice Needed

My lurcher has a small cut on her front paw, only a small cut. I've cleaned it and disinfected it. Should I leave it as it is or is there anything else I can do? Cheers Jordan

i just keep my dogs cuts clean and salt water the cut every day and make sure the dog isn't padling in shit and piss in its run it will get infected

I'm not sure how to get a photo on sorry. I've brought her in from the run to the house. Thanks for the advice gafer much appreciated cheers Jordan

I don't know what your runs are like or even if your dog is kenneled but if so a few wood shaving on floor in the run will help to keep things dryer and cleaner.

 

It goes without saying keep the dogs exercise and movement to a minimum which isn't such a bad thing this time of year unless it's your lively hood.

She has her own shed out the back so her run is the garden, I'll keep her in for a couple of days and keep an eye on the wound. Would road walking or a walk on feilds be better after the cut is sorted. Don't want it to become a problem that returns. Cheers RAW
