macoduck Posted February 10, 2009 Author Share Posted February 10, 2009 Back from the vet again. My regular vet cleaned cleaned Thane's foot and he indeed was still bleeding. When the bandage was removed it was soaked with blood inside. Now he has liquid bandage on it. We go back for a bandage change Thursday. My little man is sound asleep now. Bigbrindlebunny, I have the large Pawz. But the bandages on Thane's foot are too big to get the Paws on him. Unbandaged it would fit him. I know none of mine, ranging from 77-92 lbs., would fit in a medium.

Axel at first had three sutures then had to get a fourth which did the trick for his very similar injury. Bandage changes were clean and clear after that. Thang will be back to zooming in no time, I'm sure! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HopeForHounds Posted February 10, 2009 Share Posted February 10, 2009 Aww poor Thane. Jake did that almost exactly one year ago on some ice. Luckily just a cut, but it took ages to heal. That was when I found out about Pawz disposable boots. The guy on the website I posted about sent me a free gift because so many GTers ordered them, he sold out. Praying for an uneventful healing for Thane. Buddy, just leave it along and let it heal. Not to hijack a thread...but my boy has been dealing with a paw injury, and then the scar tissue, for about 6 months. I'm tuned into Thera-Paws, and they are awesome, but I had never heard of Pawz disposable boots. So I just checked them out and I'm tempted to order. I've got a couple of questions first: 1. What size should I get? The site says Greyhounds are a Medium, is that true? 2. How many times can you reuse them (generally speaking)? Thanks for any help/information! I bought the large, they are purple. It fits fine over a light bandage and vet wrap. They still fit on bare feet.

Can he be on a different antibiotic? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can he be on a different antibiotic? The Baytril was given by injection at the E-vet. He's on Cephalexin for the next 2 weeks. I'll keep him on the Tramadol for the next few days so he stays calm/less active and doesn't re-open the wound. It was nasty.

I find with Axel it keeps the edge off a bit and let the rimadyl really do its job. But, trying to keep a zoomy hound on bedrest is tough! Best of luck getting him to lay around the house. Axel was trying to run the stairs and setup a racetrack in the kitchen within the first week. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

macoduck Posted February 11, 2009 Author Share Posted February 11, 2009 Better. He's putting some weight on the foot. I tried to give him a break from wearing the muzzle but he started fussing with his bandage so I put it back on. When my vet walked into the exam room yesterday I had Thane's muzzle sitting on the exam table. Thane was standing behind the table where the vet couldn't see him. Vet started laughing - he saw the muzzle and thought he was going to have to deal with a vicious dog.
