Any Q

To treat a small cut, wash the area with saline and put a compress on the wound to stop the bleeding. Once the bleeding has stopped, dab a small amount of antibiotic ointment on the wound. If a dog does get injured while in your care, it's important to immediately point this out to their owner on collection. 12 июл. 2019 г.


What if my groomer cut my dog?

If a more serious incident occurred, the groomer probably already took your pet to the vet for stitches, glue, or staples. If your pet has re-commenced bleeding, the first thing is to stop the flow and allow a scab to form. Apply direct pressure to the wound with a paper towel.

Can a groomer hurt a dog?

While this might sound like a lot of work just to get your dog a bath, nail trim, or haircut, it's not unheard of for dogs to get injured during grooming. By doing a little leg work up front, you can ensure that Fido's trip to the groomer is pleasant and stress free for both of you.

What do groomers use to stop bleeding?

Styptic gels, powders, liquids, and pens can also be used for other cuts and bruises to stop bleeding in dogs. All groomers, whether professional or a home DIY groomers, should have the best dog styptic powder or gel on hand.

What do I do if I nick my dog with clippers?

I suggest carefully trimming (use clippers, not scissors) the hair away and cleaning the area gently with a diluted Betadine, chlorhexidine (Hibiclens) or similar antibacterial solution. Dry thoroughly afterwards. A dab of a triple antibiotic ointment can be applied to a minor wound.
