Vickie came home from the vet yesterday from being spayed. She has a wound. My mom asaid maybe we should put neosporin on it. Will that work?

I would only do it if it starts looking worse or your vet told you too. I do know though that neosporin will not hurt a dog but they cannot be allowed to lick it. We used it for a little problem in Ellie's ear and it worked great.

I would check with the vet first. The wound should heal by itself and it's best to keep it real dry. If it starts looking red and infected then I would call the vet. They heal pretty quick.

Thanks for the advice all.

It's healing pretty good.

If it's healing nicely I'd just leave it be.
