Blown out pads...help!

(1/6) > >>

10Key:
Hunted the desert yesterday, had a good time in the cold, albeit slow for birds...got back to the house and one of Chukar's pads was 2/3s gone. What the heck do I do with that? I was staying at a friends house so I covered it up to avoid oozing on their carpet...but now that we are home, what is protocol to expedite healing? I am getting conflicting info on web searches.

runamuk:
if it was my dog and pad was actually missing i would wrap with bag balm gauze pad and vet wrap until healing was commencing.....this wrap would need to be removed and red one every 24-48 hours in my opinion based on the dog and environment....however my experience is show dogs, rescue dogs, and pets only not really working dogs....

wildweeds:
Pad heal or straight bleach

10Key:
If I use pad heal or bleach, do I keep the pad exposed or cover it? Is licking of the area by the dog ok?

NW-GSP:
Vetricyn! The stuff works wonders. You can get it from most co op stores
