Burned Foot PADS!! HELP!! PLEASE I am having a BBQ today for father's day and my little louie was outside with us running around...all of a sudden he started crying loudly..because he was running on the hot bricks near the pool area he burned his foot pads...I didn't realize this could happen to these little guys, it's never happened before. HELP, I am a hysterical mess with him crying. What can I do to relieve his pain should I take him to the vet? I am so mad at myself, I didn't know this could happen with him he's always outside with us and he's always been fine. Please help... |
are they raw and bleeding?? if so i would take him to the vet if not i would call the vet, most will help over the phone, maybe try some burn cream and wrap them in gauze to keep him from licking them good luck, keep me posted |
One was bleeding and a little piece of his foot pad is dangling. I feel like such an a******, I can't believe I let this happen to him. He is calm now. I put desitin on them and he is sleeping in his bed. Poor baby |
is it bad? i mean is it just like the first layer thats hanging off did you call the vet yet? you are not bad, i wouldnt have thought about it earlier, we all have accidents dont beat yourself up, please! did you wrap his feet after you put destin on? i wouldnt want him to lick it |
I would say get him to the vet...ASAP |
how big of a piece of his pad is hanging off? is it just a flake or is it deep? if its deep it might need to be sutured and he might need a booty put on for a few days. If its not too bad put some neosporin on it and then put a sock over his foot and tape the sock around his ankle so it won't fall off |
ohhhhh poor baby! I never would have thought of that happening, it's not your fault. I hope he feels better soon and they recover quickly. |
You've gotten some really good advice! Keep us updated, I hope he feels better soon! |
Thanks for replying so quickly guys. He seems to be doing fine..I'm still taking him to the vet tomorrow. I feel so terrible, I have cried my eyes out-feel like such a bad mommy. I'll keep you guys posted on what the vet says tomorrow. The little piece that is dangling is not deep..but I want to be sure. My poor baby. |
Don't feel bad, I wouldn't have thought about it either. Are you sure they got burned? Maybe he scratched it on something that was on the ground. I have heard to watch them on the road in the summer but unless I was walking them for a long time on the road I wouldn't ever think about a dog burning his paws. Poor thing. I hope everything turns out ok, I'm sure it will. Keep us updated. |
Ohhh hunny, please dont beat yourself up over this....in fact Im so glad that I read this post beacause I would have never thought of it happening either....You have saved my two pups from a painful experience and I thank you....I hope your baby is ok....good luck hun. |

OMG! I didnt know that could happen to our babies either. Dont beat yourself up bc that could happen to anyone. Give lots of kisses and good luck at the vet tomorrow! |
POOR BABY ! That sounds awful and I agree with everyone - accidents happen - Did you ask the vet if you could give him a tiny bit of Baby Asprin for pain ? Sometimes it's ok - but PLEASE CALL and check with the VET first before ever giving medication - I hope he has a good night and sleeps well - and good luck tommorrow - I'd keep a very close eye on him tonight just in case..... |
I hope your little one is feeling better. Don't feel like a bad mom. These things happen sometimes. The fact that you are so concerned is what makes you a good mom. Best of luck at the vet. We will say a prayer for your little one. |
