I'm always wary of using human things on a dog after we put savlon on a lab we had and it brought him out in a horrible rash and he lost his hair.<br /><br />I think it might be one of those shall I / shan't I decisions tomorrow; the trouble is I know what vets are like once you're in the door, there's no control over what they decided your dog needs ;-) Not that I would ever avoid going if I really needed to (he spent 3 days there after the crash being checked over), but sometimes it's tempting to rush off there for the slightest thing. This morning I was thinking about how it would heal up if he was in the wild, just with dog spit and patience.

I am very happy to hear you can live with your decision (which was the right one, by the way). I did not want to say "like caring-mother-self, like dog."JJhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14692103477055483000noreply@blogger.com
