For dogs who often go out to play, since the dog's feet are in direct contact with the ground, dangers are everywhere. It is inevitable that the dog's feet will be stabbed by sharp glass fragments or nails and other sharp objects from the outside. What should I do if my dog’s foot pads are injured?

1. Sometimes the dog is running happily, but there is blood on its paws, but he is unaware of it. The intense excitement makes the dog forget the pain of the wound on his foot.

If the wound is not big, just a slight scratch, the dog feels fine, and generally does not need to be treated too much. Parents can use clean alcohol cotton to wipe away the blood and soil near the wound, and the dog will be in good condition soon. .

2. If the dog is accidentally cut by a sharp object and causes heavy bleeding, parents should take the dog home and press the bleeding wound with cotton for about one minute. If the bleeding does not improve after pressing for one minute, use a bandage to tie about five centimeters above the bleeding site to prevent some blood from flowing into the wound.

However, this method cannot be maintained for too long, because it will cause insufficient blood supply to the area below the wound and cause tissue necrosis. If you find that the area below the wound is purple-blue or is too swollen, it means that the bandage has been bandaged for too long, and you should immediately unbandage the bandaged area.

If the dog bleeds a lot, wrap the wound with cotton and tie it tightly with a bandage. Be careful not to use elastic ropes or other structural materials to bandage. After the wound is treated, bandage it as soon as possible. He went to see a doctor.

3. If you find that your dog curls up one foot and is afraid to touch the ground, and only uses the other three legs to support its body, then the dog’s curled up foot must be injured. At this time, parents cannot take it lightly. The most important thing is to find out the extent of the dog’s injuries.

When you see your dog’s foot being injured, don’t rush over to check the injury. Because the foreign object that punctured the dog may still be in the wound, if the dog's wound is accidentally touched, some dogs will be unable to help but bite, and the parents will be injured. You need to call the dog to your side, comfort the dog, and observe the wound on the foot. Do the simple things you can do.

Finally, I would like to remind all parents to avoid taking dogs to play in places with poor environment. Dogs who are accustomed to wearing shoes can wear shoes when going out to avoid accidents. Secondly, when you encounter a dog with an injured foot pad, If you are unable to treat the dog's wound within your power, you should immediately send it to a pet hospital for emergency treatment.
