Prescription... it's a foul tasting topical ointment..... just put it on something u don't want licked or biten.... he said i'd not use it all, that if I wanted to kick a nail biting habit I could even use it...

I'm so glad to hear you had a good visit with your vet and that you got antibiotics for the infection! No charge...way to go! Your vet sounds a lot like mine...he's so nice and giving and caring!

Best wishes to Cash for a speedy recovery!!!

I said with such curiosity, "Do you usually give dogs a cone to wear when they have surgery"? He says, well we do and we don't, he says these little guys get really scared when you put that on them and I don't want to scare them more than they already are...I said ok, cool...

I said he's licking all the time, so he gave me some banguard, and I haven't noticed him licking, I still see white on there CHACHING!!!!!! !!!!!!!!! lol

I also said, is there a charge to get rechecked, he says, Nahh, no charge... YES!!!!!!! Because usually there IS! YEAH!!! I was sooo happppyyyyyy!! LOL

THanks for alll your help ladies!!! You rock!

Yeah, I'm so proud of you for asking. See, I told you it wouldn't "hurt!"

Hope he gets well soon!

Thats strange to me that they put those collars on them. My Vet has told me several times that dogs "licking their wounds" are natures antibiotics. That they have healing and bacteria inhibiting enzymes in their saliva??? Has anyone else ever heard that??HMMMMM

golly , i am just seeing this post. not been on much lately.
Hope he is doing better by now. give him granny kisses for me.
that stuff to keep them from licking sounds like a good alternative.
I have used onsies with good success. only thing is, i put them on backwards so as the snaps are on the upper side. i didn't want them rubbing the problem area.
I hope his infection clears up fast. poor little feller.

Tressie goes in for her 'fix' in a couple of weeks. then when she has recovered it is Archie's turn. then we are done.
