hi everybody and welcome back to relax my dog now today's video is a rather
important as we're than we're talking about how to care for your dog's wound
now before we do get started definitely do go down below to the comments and let
me know anything else you guys want to learn more about we absolutely love
hearing about your guys's thoughts and opinions on this channel so let me down
below is anything you guys have noticed on your dog you want something a little
bit more about it's a training that you want to learn more about let me know in
the comments below now there is a very deadline as to
whether you should treats the wound at home or whether you should take them to
the best if anything does it penetrate the skin he's definitely recommended
that you do go to the vets because it can get infected and it's not really
something you can care for at home however if it is something sort of like
a cottony or a scratch or anything like that you can definitely treat this at
home using the correct things it's also important to know that if they cut is
ever inflamed all the ways paws around the cut as well definitely do it seek
effect help because I can say it isn't necessarily something you can treat at
home I also remember that you should only ever treat your dog's wound if you
are fully confident if you are particularly worried about anything or
you aren't as confident as you maybe should be then definitely do just take
it in to the vets or give them a call and tell them what has happened I'm sure
that that will be willing to help you but do you remember that if you're not
as confident you might actually make things worse for your dog so make sure
you are fully confident if he's something like a scratched knee or
anything like that that you treat on yourself you should be able to perform
the same thing for your dog now it's important to remember that
yours to get is a lot different than your dog's skin so things that might
necessarily work on you it might not work as well on your dog I'm going to
let's throw a few things that you should have whether you've just discovered a
wound or if you want to prepared for one as well the first thing you'll need is a
water-based lubricant you'll also need some electric Clippers or scissors or
even a razor you'll obviously need some warm water clean towels antiseptic
solution and also some auntie my bro Creole augment so the first thing you
must do is to obviously place your dog somewhere where you can have access to
the wound if you have a big dog like Milo or any bigger I would definitely
recommend that you sort of go to their level as opposed to trying to pick them
up and put them somewhere higher whereas if you have a smaller dog you might just
be easier to pop them on the table and somewhere where you can have it
access to their wound now usually when you do have a cut or a scratch on your
dog it is actually recommended that you shave that area I've actually never had
to clean a wound or Milo he's normally quiet careful if you didn't have any
sort of cuts or scratches it is recommended that you do shave that area
just to make sure that nothing is getting in there and it can be
thoroughly cleaned so the first thing you would need to do is to find the
wound and to pop some water-based lubricant on there just to make sure
there is easier to shave then only need to do is to just cut away the fur or to
straight away the fur and then to wipe away at the lubricant using a warm cloth
just to make sure you were trying to wipe away as much bacteria and to kill
it off as much as possible then as you would do with any other cuts you need to
get some warm water and to Pat and wipe away it clear to make sure you get rid
of any debris or to make sure you get any blood that your dog might have on
their cot so there's a fresh wound that you can physically see there next up you
need to get your antiseptic it is actually recommended that you use a non
sting Newmont so it is an uncomfortable for your dog there are many different
ones you can get on the high street that are relatively cheap this is just to
make sure that it kills all of the bacteria or the yeast that has developed
into the wound then all you need to do is apply the ointment to the wound and
make sure you are keeping your dog away from it for at least ten minutes if you
have a cone or a muscle or anything like that and if your dog is wanted to
scratch the area definitely do pop these on there and definitely do keep your eye
on your dog drawing these ten minutes also if your dog is able to definitely
do take them for a walk during this time to get their mind onto something else
then to finish it off it is recommended that you do there's a two to three times
a day just make sure they're wound is thoroughly cleaned if you did enjoy this
