rat bites


Recommended Posts

Evening chaps-what is the recommended tretment for rat bites on my terriers?for some reason 1 of them prefers to chew them rather than shake & subsequently gets bitten up , all ive done previously is clean him up with saltwater dry it off & apply sudocreme--is this a suitable/sensible course of action? obviously if anything looks like its not healing i would use antibiotics but i try not to use them to regularly, i,ll be pleased to hear opinions on the matter :D

Chimp, these are the two immediate ones I use after a bad rat bite

 

1.TCP

 

2. Hot salty water, keep putting salt into the water until no more dissolves, have it as hot as your fingers can take, then apply with a clean cotton ball using copius amounts

 

Obviously, keep an eye on it for a day or two if it flares up give it a shot. :good:
