Puppy Paw - Amputation Diverted!
![]() |
|
Puck was an 8–week old puppy abandoned at the front door of a local veterinarian office. Puck's left front paw was degloved, completely raw, devoid of all skin and hair. Amputation was considered for this dog. As an alternative, the veterinarian decided to drip Banixx™ onto the wound daily and protect it with a liquid bandage. Puck kept his paw and this happy dog was adopted by a loving family. On photo at right, you see a healthy, happy Puck. Notice his left front paw. |

Dr. Broadhurst of Pinehurst, NC, the attending veterinarian, said, "as in previous Banixx™ cases of dogs and cats, the Banixx™ solution appeared to prevent secondary infection. The rate of closure was so increased in some areas of the wound, that closure was completed by the 10th day". We've seen similar results on a variety of dog wounds and skin infections.
