pro keeper 111 Posted February 22, 2015 Report Share Posted February 22, 2015 The next time this happens try washing out with hibicrub to clean then staple it back together you can buy the staple guns from the countrymans weekly £15. i then give the dogs a covering jab of antibiotics which you can get a bottle from most vets for around £15 FARM VETS ARE THE BEST FOR THIS. I like to keep a first aid box ready in case if you have running dogs its going to happen atb phil Jabbing a dog because its had a little tear is counter productive and very seldom needed,modern folklore. what your saying is right in some ways chap just if you staple or stitch most vets cover the dog with tablets or a jab. most small tears need no treatments atb phil Quote Link to post
