craigyboy 1,274 Posted April 8, 2009 Report Share Posted April 8, 2009 staplers are advertised in the back of the cm weekly. id say its best getting glue, some penacilin and purple spray because for a vet to do a cut back and stich it will cost at least £150. the last one i paid for was about £200. How gutted would you be if the dog streched its legs and all the stiches tore open, what i do know is that would be another £200 at the vets. Using glue,penacilin and purple spray a wound should knit together in about 4 days but just remember to leave a bit open so any puss or fluid can exit the wound and that will help stop infection. Purple spray is the business where dya get purple spray from mate Quote Link to post

Purple spray is the business teramyasin spray? Doesnt say on the bottle. You can buy it from any saddlery suppliers, it comes as an aerosol or a squirty bottle and i find it is cheaper and lasts longer from the squirty bottle. Be careful because it stains everything bright purple including fingernails Quote Link to post
webby 31 Posted April 8, 2009 Report Share Posted April 8, 2009 (edited) Its primerely for horses. I think its powder based so when applied to a wet wound it kind of soaks up any fluid and seals the wound so it is better to use on body cuts but for face wounds i would use a pepet to apply iodene or use iodene to clean the wound before using purple spray Edited April 8, 2009 by webby Quote Link to post

This is how i do it. 1. clean wound out with savlon liquid spray or iodene. 2. apply glue on a match stick and dab on the dog to form a butterfly stitch, do not cut away any hair as it will pull or fall out within a week with the glue attached and in this time the wound will have knitted together. 3. apply purple spray and jab the dog or the right dose of nisamox tabs but they are prescription only, i have heard of lads using human amoxiclav tabs because they are used for animal bites as they combat the bacteria that is transfered from cat, dog, fox and any thing else. "Stitches" should be about an inch apart. mind your hands because the dog might decide to bite if you dont know what you are doing Quote Link to post
