stiches or no??

my dog was helping me hunt squirrels yesterday and she bit her tounge...not my jeep dog but my other....heres a pic....is it needin stiches or will it be ok?

 

It will be ok. Bronson bit a big ass chunk out of his tongue one day. Tongue will bleed like a mofo for a while, but not much you can do but let it heal up. Keep an eye on it to make sure it doesn't get infected. A few antibiotics if it starts getting infected.

 

ok, never had that happern before....i didnt think they could stitch the tounge but i wasnt real sure...thanks boogie, you make yuma? heard it was small

 

Nope couldn't go. Work is crazy and couldn't get off work. Who were the judges?

 

u dont need stitches but u need to put mouth wash in a spray bottle and clean his mouth atleast twice a day and u should be fine

 

That's a damn good idea! Thanks for the tip Ch Dynomite.

 

no problem!

 

I second that good tip Dynomite!

 

Damn, that looks nasty!
I found this place yesterday. Been looking for a few places to pick up supplies and this looks like a good place for meds.

that looks scary to me man !!!
never heard of tongue stitching .

 

i think some antibiotics will get her done....if not ill throw some numbing stuff and put a stich ot two in it.....she doesnt act like it bothering her but i dont want it to get infected

 

u dont need any stitches ! that really isnt much. as long as u spray it with listerine u will be fine. trust me

 

Listerine should do the trick.

 

lemon juice, several times a day
