DocsDoctor Posted November 8, 2015 Share Posted November 8, 2015 No car. At home - saline, sudocrem, a syringe for flushing out dirt, cotton wool, dressings, vetwrap. Cornflour in case a nail gets quicked. Clean cotton rags - I always have a supply of these, they are useful for so many clean-up jobs around the house. The odd old sock, t-shirt, etc, already customised to prevent a dog getting at a wound. Think I have some left-over rubber 'pawz' still too. No antibiotic ointment - antibiotics are prescription-only in the UK. Quote Clare with Tiger (Snapper Gar, b. 18/05/2015), and remembering Ken (Boomtown Ken, 01/05/2011-21/02/2020) and Doc (Barefoot Doctor, 20/08/2001-15/04/2015)."It is also to be noted of every species, that the handsomest of each move best ... and beasts of the most elegant form, always excel in speed; of this, the horse and greyhound are beautiful examples."----Wiliam Hogarth, The Analysis of Beauty, 1753.
