DogMagic 461 Posted November 4, 2011 Report Share Posted November 4, 2011 Never heard of it. You can get purple spray from scats, farm shops, horsey type places, agricultural mercheants...................... Quote Link to post
danw 1,748 Posted November 5, 2011 Report Share Posted November 5, 2011 (edited) Engemycin is antibiotic far better than anything you can buy from scatts etc it is the same active ingredient as terramycin which is oxytetracycline the stuff from scats is antiseptic not antibiotic Edited November 5, 2011 by danw Quote Link to post

jamiew 11 Posted November 5, 2011 Report Share Posted November 5, 2011 have used in the past, but i find warm salt water regular is a better alternative, atb jamiew Quote Link to post
stabba 10,745 Posted November 5, 2011 Report Share Posted November 5, 2011 Engemycin will be loads better than just ordinary Gentions violet. But use it sparingly as its an antibiotic based and too much use will see an immunity built up by the dog against its use...i,d just use it at the sight of infection and not clean wounds or sores...atb stabba Quote Link to post
CathNellHarris 4 Posted November 5, 2011 Report Share Posted November 5, 2011 have used in the past, but i find warm salt water regular is a better alternative, atb jamiew I tend to use Cut-Heal (Liquid) avaliable at most horsey places, the dogs dont lick it like they do with blue spray its really good, Quote Link to post
barry123 112 Posted November 5, 2011 Report Share Posted November 5, 2011 i find Betidine spray by far the best. Quote Link to post
