If your puppy scratches its coat, here are some suggested treatments:
1. Clean the wound: Gently clean the scratched area with warm water or a mild soap-free solution. Make sure to trim the hair around the wound to keep it clean.
2. Control bleeding: If a scratch causes bleeding, use clean gauze or a bandage to apply gentle pressure on the wound to help control bleeding. If bleeding is severe or persistent, seek veterinary help immediately.
3. Disinfect the wound: Disinfect the wound with a disinfectant (such as iodine or chlorhexidine) to prevent infection. Use caution when applying disinfectants to avoid pain or discomfort.
4. Band-Aids or bandages: Depending on the size and location of the wound, you can consider using some breathable band-aids or non-adhesive bandages to protect the wound from external contamination.
5. Observe the wound: Closely observe the healing of the wound. If the wound shows any obvious signs of infection (such as redness, swelling, drainage, foul odor, etc.), please consult your veterinarian immediately.
6. Veterinary Visit: If the scratch is deep or complex, or you are unsure about wound management, it is best to seek advice from your veterinarian and further treatment.
Remember, dog trauma management is a case-by-case basis. If you are unsure about wound management or the injury is serious, please seek the advice of a veterinarian as soon as possible.
