Deep cut on pads

I have my dog that has two deep cuts on his pads, is it stiching recommended?

 

Not on a pad usually unless it's a controlling bleeding type deal. Mine get them from time to time, more in the warmer months most likely from all the road walking. I just clean it, glue it and put them in a crate for a few days. It will keep them off it and allow it to heal on its own. You can try wrapping it, suturing it, use surgical strip etc. The dog will most likely just keep messing with it though and either get that stuff off or dig at the wound making it worse. Super glue has always worked very well for me.

 

It is not bleeding, just deep cuts sustained while trying to get through the chain link fence to another dog, I tried wrapping it but does not last long. Will try getting the super glue, thanks.

 

Just make sure you clean the wound with some sort of antiseptic before you close it up.

 

Thank you Saiyagin.

 

You can also try musher's secret or padheal

I have used a product called "skin shield" for myself, and my dogs. It's like the super glue idea mentioned pretty much, but it comes in a bottle where the lid is a brush. Its also an antiseptic. It works alright.

 

Spray the pad with some blue kote and put em in a kennel

 

I need to try this blue kote. Thanks for this.

 

I hate using it. It stains everything in the environment it's sprayed. Don't do it in your house if your using it, wear gloves and don't wear anything you ever want to wear again. Lol
It does work though and I will use it when I absolutely have too.

 

^Woah, on second thought maybe not.

 

Lol I had a white dog some years back in the day and had a problem with horse flys lol I sprayed his whole head lmao for a long time I had a purple headed dog

 

If u put the dog in the kennel there's no mess u just gota wait for it to dry before u let them run loose

 

Thank you guys, is the blue kote the same as the purple spray?

 

Yes. It's called blue cote but it actually sprays a violet color.

 

It makes a mess. I had blue paw prints on my laundry room floor. That was a long time ago.Never again

 

Your right AGK it was violet color.
