cleaning your dogs what do you use


Recommended Posts


Salt and water, nowt else. Jab of penacillin if needed.

when a was younger and had my old dog and he was worked hard and often he always wanted cleaning and sorting and belive me we wernt talking scratches,he wasnt an over hard dog but could get stuck in if he had too,any way back then a had no money and the old dog worked till he was over 10 years old,all a used was the salt water job and occasionally if he was real bad a got him a shot of penacillin,cotton wool bubs n cleaned 4 times a with salt water then under the heat lamp always did the trick :thumbs: !!

there is nothing to beat either Granulex V or Debrisol sprays. After a proper cleaning of all wounds first they will do everything else with minimal scarring.

washing with disinfectants should be kept to a minimum where practical, because anything bar saline although killing bacteria will also damage good skin/flesh. Domestos kills all know germs but you wouldn't use it on yourself or the dog?

When needed antibiotics shouldn't be spared a minimum of a 3 day course should be given. if a dog [bANNED TEXT] tdown or backwards 5-10 days after a course of antibiotics suspect a secondary infection and treat with a different antibiotic.

an ear thermometer is a handy bit of kit
