tricky dicky 0 Posted February 24, 2006 Report Share Posted February 24, 2006 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 The Chimp Quote Link to post

DIGGIT 6 Posted February 24, 2006 Report Share Posted February 24, 2006 HI ALL uk hunter is right use hot salty water , u can also use a 3 to 5ml jab of sinulox, a broad spectrum antibotic this will help to take down swelling ps if u need some sinulox pm me all the best [bANNED TEXT] and good look Quote Link to post
Bandit 0 Posted February 24, 2006 Report Share Posted February 24, 2006 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.
