bruno

[jp2854]

bruno has this cut on her paw (top part) we have no clue how she got it (we guess she might have cut it on some glass that was behind the workshop at my moms but we aren't sure) she won't let either of us touch it and the lady who answers the phones at the vets wants us to clean her paw off (well how do you do that to a 90lb dog who wont let you near her foot or even look at it without trying to bite your face off?

muzzle her, or take her to the vet and have them sedate her to clean the wound and look at it. It's probably infected and very sore.

Grab the top of her leg and not near the injury to put it in a solution. Or if their is two of you have someone hold her, but not to where it scares her.

Be da master! lol!

Wrap her in a blanket with the one paw exposed. Give lots of love and attention to keep her mind off of what your doing, and soak the sore paw.

Muzzle her (you can improvise here w/ a towel and a belt, just make sure she can still breath). Get someone to help you, and one person cradles her head against their chest while the other does the paw.

Just do what needs to be done, she doesn't have to like it. Worst comes to worst just run a few inches of water into the tub and make her stand in it for a while. Better than nothing.

you can also try her favorite treats while someone gets her paw in the water. Good Luck

Poor dog. Retards shouldn't be allowed to have pets.

Who is the master - you or the dog??? You are the one who controls the dog not the dog controlling you. If you care enough about the dog then grab the damn foot and soak it in some warm soapy water, wrap it up in gauze and keep it clean and dry until it heals. How hard it that??? The size of the dog is not important - but keeping the foot clean is. Stupid people shouldnt have animals or kids.

i am far from being stupid. I just wanted to see how others deal with a dog who won't let them touch there injuries that is all. by the way she let me soak her paw and now shes resting. shes not happy though but she will get over it.

Try changing bandages every 12 hrs and then every 24hrs.. blah. blah.. blah.. Take charge!

i heard you didn't do any of it unix you took her to the vet to have them changed. By the way bruno doesn't have to have her foot soaked or any of that. she is ok.
