deadlyshot 25 Posted April 2, 2013 Report Share Posted April 2, 2013 What antiseptics do you lot use if your dogs have been bitten either by rats of foxes I had a call out this weekend just gone and my bitch got bit quite hard so her wound is quite deep on end of nose and muzzle I have used salt water but just wondered if savlon or something else would be better Quote Link to post Share on other sites
bobby blackheart 1,209 Posted April 2, 2013 Report Share Posted April 2, 2013 any anti bac soap/handwash will do-non alcoholic mind. dettol/hubiscrub etc Quote Link to post Share on other sites
downsouth 7,216 Posted April 2, 2013 Report Share Posted April 2, 2013 (edited) Like Bobby said Hibiscrub/Dettol well diluted then once its had a good initial clean good old salt water.If wounds are really bad fill with drycow but that shoulnt be needed for ratbites and only be needed for the very deepest of foxbites Edited April 2, 2013 by downsouth 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

dogger 100 Posted April 3, 2013 Report Share Posted April 3, 2013 i work in a hospital and one of the nurses told me to use diluted t tree oil in warm water as its what women use to heal tears after child birth as its very mild but very effective in fighting infection 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
