super glue a cut????

hey guys.. missy got a nasty cut on the sole of her paw, its fairly deep. i have heard of super glueing the cut closed.. have u heard or done this before? if so is it special glue or what?? cheers.

how big is the cut? i wouldn't use super glue, billie had a right nasty cut a above her paw few weeks back what i did is clean it up some warm salty water and look at it everyday to make sure it was not getting infected

its bad enough like... if i had it i would need stiches. i put antiseptic spray on it. i put her to bed early so she wont walk on it.

Think it's better not to close it, because when it's infected it can't get out of the wound.

might be worth a trip down the vets,if it looks that bad,or give it couple days and see how it looks then,i dont know about glueing it....

My daughter fell down the stairs when she was a youngster and the hospital glued the cut on her head. I dont know about pets though

Thats not normal super glue it`s a special medical glue .

If you think that if you have a gut like your dog have and you need stitches why wont you go to the vets with your dog seems to me he/she need stitches to

Are you sure is special stuff only when Charlie had some skin samples taken one of her stitches burst open and the vet glued her skin together with normal stuff.

I will add that it didn't work and it burst open again resulting in her having to be stapled together !

I would take her to the vets also driftervin, Dante lost his nail 9 days ago and has been in terrible pain, because he has to walk on it, hes been on pain killers/penicillin to stop any infection

I thought that too danny

Im sure of it a friend of Sandra is a vet asistent and she told me
