    LOL, I just love Phreds stories.

    Well, Taggart is fine. He is walking on all fours and not messin' with his foot at all. I will still be checking the cut ALL the time to make sure infection doesn't happen.

    Do you think I should still put the "neosporin" on it and wrap it at night? Just to help with the healing a little?

    Monica, see we have all used peroxide (I even used it in my hair in 8th grade, LOL) and we survived.

    Thanks again everyone.
    Our goal in life should be - to be as good a person as our dog thinks we are.

    Thank you for the siggy, Michelle!

    Cassie was always getting cuts like that....I think she would step on sticks or several times it was the metal edging on the flower beds.....I would usually do the exact same thing you did, and they always healed fine.....speaking of peroxide....I knew a girl whose mom made her brush her teeth with, clean out her ears, gargle with it....who knows what else....they must have bought it by the case!! LOL

    I wouldn't bother wrapping it just keep it clean and it should heal on it's own.
    Dogs get cuts people don't know about all the time especially long haired dogs where people can't see down to the skin and they heal just fine on their own.

    p.s clip his dewclaw!
    That thing is massive.

    Yeah, that's what I'm going to do. Keeping it wrapped is just too hard. But what should I use to clean it?

    And yes, I know his dewclaw needs clipping. I was waiting for someone to mention it.

    I'm sorry I missed this thread I am glad he is doing better. Don't worry Caseys nails are all really long, she only gets clipped yearly when she is under for her dental...that way I get to keep all my fingers
    don't breed or buy while shelter dogs die....

    I have been frosted!

    Thanks Kfamr for the signature!

    Thanks caseysmom. Taggart is very good about me clipping his nails. I'm just a little lazy and forget. Zoee is the one I have a hard time with.
