Cuts
Wounds smaller than a half of an inch in diameter can be treated at home; anything larger requires professional medical attention.  With clean hands, gently clip the fur around the wound with electric clippers.  Use warm water or saline to flush out the wound.  Flush enough to remove all dirt and debris from the area.  You can apply an antibiotic cream (Bacitracin) twice daily.  If the wound becomes larger, produces purulent (pus) material or the animal is very uncomfortable, seek veterinary attention immediately. Most cuts will look improved within three days so if this is NOT the case, be sure to call your veterinarian.
