Guest guest Posted January 20, 2008 Report Share Posted January 20, 2008 MRSA is becoming a problem in pets as well as humans. You might want to read the following website: http://tahilla.typepad.com/petsmrsa/ I would also use CS internally, if it were my pet.

Should I use antibiotics? I just applied DMSO 70% DMSO 30% Aloe to my dogs wrist with CS 1100ppm. --------------------------------- Never miss a thing. Make Yahoo your homepage.

Guest guest Posted January 24, 2008 Report Share Posted January 24, 2008 Hi, I guess you mean the dog with the infected ankle? No idea. She was in a fight with a much younger but very guardian livestock dog. I was moving animals and never gave it a thought when I put the older female in the younger dog's area. The younger female considered it mortal danger to have the strange, but known dog, in her area and reacted strongly. The older female took care of her quickly but then as she was backing away and turned to leave, the younger one bit her and it started again. This is when the ankle was bitten. I took her to the vet at least three times, once for over a week, had heavy antibiotics but the test was negative. I understand the test (found this out), is usually not a good idea at the joints. Nothing helped, nothing worked and she had three flare ups over the two years. You could see nothing except swelling when it acted up and it was very painful. If you mean the mastitis, I used the DMSO topically with an antibiotic. No idea of what kind of infection it was but it controlled it as well as anyone could have hoped. Both infections were internal.

Guest guest Posted January 24, 2008 Report Share Posted January 24, 2008 For any puncture wound / dog bite I immediately pack the wound with Sugardine. This is made by mixing Betadine brand povidone iodine ointment, (www.jeffersequine.com) or some pharmacies have it in a small tube. It must be the water soluble type, not the lanolin based iodine ointments, hence the use of a particular brand name. Mix with table sugar to the consistency of runny peanut butter, it will thicken over night so don't ignore this or it will get too thick, just add more ointment to thin. Sugardine was tested in 500 patients with gangrene to lacerations to puncture wounds and was shown to be superior to all known topical antibiotics. See the Farrier's Journal article for details. I have saved cockatiels from cat bites -- very unusual; for r a cage bird to survive a cat bite -- I did injections of Baytril into her chest muscles twice a day, on vet recommendation but I am sure it was the immediate packing of the wound that saved her since the abx injections did not start until almost 4 hours fate the bite.
