Yes, I even know people around here that would let dogs lick wounds, -said it healed them. And this is at the top of the world. For some reason I never wanted to try that (I use Iodine in water or alcohold : )
- rwallace 11y agoI couldn't bring myself to go as far as letting a dog lick a wound, but these days the Mayo Clinic is advising against using disinfectants like iodine or alcohol; just make sure it's clean and apply a sterile bandage. Rationale: disinfectants do kill bacteria, but applied to an open wound they also kill white blood cells; apparently it's a net negative.
