My bully Bella got a cut on her paw a couple hours ago and it's been bleeding ever since. We don't know how she got it what should we do?

Do you have polysporine at home? Soak his paw in ACV And then put some ploy on. if you have a baby sock or something to wrap it up for a few hours. Remove the bandage, air it out a bit and check what it looks like. Bleeding should stop. But you would need to make sure he’s not walking on it. Like bedtime.

Great advice from Helene [MENTION=15310]helsonwheels[/MENTION] :)

How is Bella doing now? If the bleeding won't stop
you might have to seal the edges of the cut with Super Glue
& crate her for a couple days. Check with Vet first tho.
Years ago we had a gorgeous, black & white Springer Spaniel
that cut the very bottom of his front paw pad. Very deep and
would not stop bleeding and I believe the Vet finally glued it
shut then bandaged it and we put a sock on it.

Please update us on Bella...Welcome to EBN :)

Bella is not bleeding anymore the cut seems to have healed well overnight. Should I still do these things if she's not bleeding?


Bella doesn't seem to mind the cut and she is walking fine too.

Lol love the bed on the sofa! How much pampering can she get lolll

I personally wouldn’t go to the vet. Just keep an eye on it. I would definitely keep it wrapped up for the day as she’ll be walking on it. Just keep the polysporin on it. The big red spot on the photo, did it pierced?

Glad its better!! To speed recovery up I'm hearing great things about medihoney (various brands). There are derma creams which I'm not sure are ok for dogs (but I'm trying to find out), but theres also dressings that are ok.

OUCH! Glad to hear she is healing up.... keep it clean and watch for any change to the area (red or swollen).
