Our whippet has somehow managed to cut himself on the inside of his back leg. Because of where it is, I didn’t actually see the cut until last night. And I think he must have done it on Friday
Took him to the PAH vet this morning (our usual vet is closed) and he had antibiotic and anti inflammatory injections. The vet said it was a tough call in terms of leaving it to heal on its own, or anaesthetising him, cleaning out the wound and stitching it. I’m worried about anaesthetising him and will take him to our vet tomorrow for a second opinion.
Would be great to hear thoughts / experiences on this or if there are any other options for him. Needless to say I feel awful that it took me so long to see it.
