  Lisa F. asked:

  So, as if I haven't had enough puppy issues the last week to last me a lifetime... Lily's incision (spay) is getting a little red around it. I noticed her licking it (once... she's sitting by my side at work so I can keep an eye on her and KNOW). I've put an extra large t-shirt on her and she can't get at it anymore. I'm wondering if it's ok to put Neosporin on it, or if there are better suggestions out there? You all know the vet problems I've been having, so I hesitate to contact him. If it's worse tomorrow, I will, but in the mean time I'm wondering if there is something I can put on to help? Thanks!

  My dog tried to jump the fence and cut herself in the process where can I take her to get fixed up

  Yes, don't use peroxide in the future. Best thing to use is Vetericyn, which you can get at PetsMart or the feed store. It's oxygenated saline gel and heals SUPER FAST. Www. Vetericyn.com

  Andrew T. asked:

  Does anyone have recommendations on how to treat a dog with a slightly torn pad on his foot? Maybe some TLC?

  

  Nicole S. replied:

  By Henry Cerny, DVM, MS Foot pad injuries in dogs can range from abrasions, blisters, burns, ulcers, tears, punctures and lacerations. It is important to be aware what type of surface your dog walks on. Concrete for example can be rough and heats up quickly during warm or hot weather. Rock, gravel and sand can also injure the foot pads. The common clinical signs are limping, licking at the foot or bleeding. Home care for mild abrasions include gently rinsing the affected foot under cool water to remove any debris, followed by the application an antibacterial ointment or solution. I prefer Vetericyn as it is a reliable wound care solution that does not interfere with the wound healing process. Products such as Neosporin can also be used. Finally, place a non-stick telfa pad over the foot pad(s) and lightly wrap with vet wrap or an ace bandage. The bandage should be kept clean and dry and changed daily until the pads have healed. Though some foot pad injuries cannot be prevented, avoiding rough, jagged or hot surfaces as well as protective foot wear can be helpful. Anything more serious than a superficial abrasion should be treated by your veterinarian as foot pads do not heal like regular skin.
