Faith's mommy

Discussion Starter · Sep 20, 2009

Faith cut one of her pads this morning and i'm trying to figure out how to or if i should treat it at all.

it doesn't seem to be bothering her, she's putting weight on the foot and isn't really cleaning it excessively or anything like that.

but, we keep seeing little blood splots on the floor where she's walking and i'm wondering if i should try to bandage it up.

her vets are closed today, but i can always call the emergency vet if it gets bad (i don't expect to have to do that).

anyone have this before? what did you do?

Oh, poor Faith

My first golden needed to have her foot wrapped, once, and I used a child sized sock to cover it and held it on with some of the medical adhesive tape but I think that the stuff Kimm is talking about would work better over the sock because it would be easier to change it. When I took her out I put a baggie over it to keep it dry.
