Deep wound

Comments (0)

Deep cuts to the limbs usually will need stitching so ring your vet for advice.

  • bathe the wound with salt water
  • apply a sterile pad over the wound so that the bandage doesn't stick to the fur
  • cover the wound with a light dressing of gauze. Never apply a dressing too tight as you may cut off the blood supply
