yes I have had to pay a couple of visits to the vet
he was hunting something in the wood about 4 weeks back, and he came back with a hole in the inside of right hind leg, I could have put the top of my index finger in the hole, ikept it clean salt water
and all but I decided, to take him to the vets for antibiotics,one injection, 1 small bottle of antiseptic
powder, £35.00 for less than 3 minutes work, she said by rights, required stitching I asked how much
about £70.00 I said leave it I WILL TAKE CARE OF IT, the antibiotic was the main important one, but for any one has a simmilar cut/hole I use HYDROGENPEROXIDE, WORKS WONDERS, and heals very quickly, and I use the udder cream that the dairy men use on the cows teats works very well too,

Border lad,

Hes lightned up a treat,i thought he would be heavier looking at the earlier photos,although photos can be misleading sometimes.

I used to have terriers and second the use of Hydrogen peroxide 100%,but some info on dilution should accompany it or someone could use it neat,the antibiotic wound powder is very good as well imo,dries wounds out and seals them from infection very well,you can buy it at a reasonable price on the net,much cheaper than the vets.

Hydrogen peroxide I use 9% vol, comes in small bottles, you can even make up as a mouth wash and for treating skin abrasions, on humans, and I forgot makes good tooth paste, mix with baking soda,(( true,)) check it all out on google and for a
fraction of the price you will pay at the vet, and it will explain a lot more about its healing properties
than I can,

Ive had 20% and 30% if i remember right,i was told to dilute it 2 to 1 20% and 3 to one 30%,ive used it on myself and its good stuff.

Its brilliant for hard to clean punctures,i just dilute it and inject it [no needle] into a puncture and all the crap fizzes out and it seems to cauterize the living flesh,a real bonus to anyone who hunts quarry that bites back.

You are right about it being used as a toothpaste as well,apparently a lot of Americans use it regularly,it obviously bleaches your teeth white,not tried it though.
