|
|
Hi took alfie for a haircut on friday. When i picked him up the lady told me she had cut his ear with the clippers. The cut is at the end of his ear. its more like a small chunk shes took out. The scab has came off a cpl a times and started bleeding again It doesnt seem to bother him but am worried. Should i take him to the vet to get it checked up? Or am i just being paranoid? |

what groomer did you use.
if its not bothering him i would leader it. but if you want to set your mind at ease bathe it with some antiseptic solution. and just keep an eye on how it is healing. _________________ microchiping and grooming www.chipnclip.co.uk

Poor wee dog.
Follow nurse Kendal's instructions and keep an eye on him.
I am sure he will be fine.

A bit of antiseptic and he'll be right as rain. I go through tons of the stuff as I have a dog that thinks he's a commando and is forever coming back from the woods with little nicks.
He came hurtling out of a wood at the weekend, tripped over a bramble vine, did a full tumble and carried on running.
Doesn't seem to bother him much. |
