Product Information

Did you know that dogs can get corns on their feet? Maybe not! This condition is relatively rare in most breeds and types of dog, and is almost always unique to greyhounds, whippets and lurchers, where its prevalence rate is actually quite high. Because corns on the feet are fairly uncommon in other breeds of dog, often even veterinary surgeons are not particularly familiar with the condition, and misdiagnosis during the early stages of the problem developing is not uncommon for this reason. So if you own a greyhound, whippet or lurcher, it's important to learn about corns on the feet so that you can identify a potential problem developing and point your vet in the right direction. What are corns?

Signs and symptoms of corns in your dog

This is an excellent product which we always have in our stables yard veterinary kit. Works extremely well in assisting with healing. There are various different theories and opinions as to how and why corns develop in dogs, and why they are almost totally unique to greyhounds, whippets and lurchers. One working theory is that the lean build and low body fat percentage of greyhounds, whippets and lurchers means that dogs of these types do not have as much fat to cushion the pads of the feet as other dogs do, making them particularly susceptible to the problem. The presence of a foreign body in the pad, even something as small as a piece of grit, may cause scar tissue to build up around the foreign body, and form the hard callous that becomes the corn. Another theory is that corns are caused by a viral infection, like warts, and the frequent success of treatment with antiviral medications for corns would seem to bear out this theory, although it may not be the case in all circumstances. Signs and symptoms of corns in your dog

Due to the fact that they are benign growths, skin tags are not generally of great concern beyond the cosmetic appearance. However, in some cases they may get caught on objects or get pulled when grooming, causing them to bleed or cause your pet pain and discomfort — in these cases, surgical removal may be advisable. No matter how much you try to protect them. The furry family members in your household are no exception, and so it is equally important to learn how to best care for them in the event of an accident. Amputation of the offending toe is another option, which may seem rather dramatic but is often indicated in cases of persistently recurring corns which have a significant impact on the happiness and wellbeing of the dog. Once you have plasters and a bandage on, you may struggle to keep dogs from biting at the dressing because they want it removed. A spray-on plaster can prevent these issues and still form the protection barrier required. There are several different treatment options available for corns in dogs, all of which depend on the type of corn and its growth, and what your individual vet prefers and recommends. Some of the most commonly utilised treatment methods are listed below.This worked a treat on my dogs tail. The silver colour meant I could that I had covered the whole area, unlike the clear ones where you can't see.

Remember to always consult with your vet before applying any wound preparations to your dog's wounds, especially if they are deep or severe. In some cases, we may suggest further testing as many different skin growths can look relatively similar. However, this may not be necessary if we strongly suspect that the mass is just a skin tag.Reapply the spray on plaster after a few days if it comes off/ Discontinue treatment or speak to a vet if irritation occurs. Vetrap is a trusted brand for cohesive bandages that provide excellent support and compression. Their bandages are breathable and flexible, making them comfortable for your dog to wear.

If your pet has a small wound or graze, that is not bleeding heavily, gently run water over it for as long as your pet will tolerate to help to remove as much dirt and bacteria as possible.To get better results, start by cleaning and disinfecting the wound. The skin areas should then dry thoroughly. Next, the spray should be applied several times a day to the skin's affected areas to make a complete, protective film visible. Skin tags in dogs are benign growths (tumours) on the surface of the skin which are a relatively common phenomenon in dogs (they can also be found in cats but less frequently). Skin tags are most commonly found in older animals and there are various medical terms used to describe skin tags, such as acrochordon, fibroepithelial polyp and fibrovascular papilloma. Yes, be sure to follow the manufacturer's instructions. Spray plaster can be sprayed directly onto superficial wounds as a dressing set, i.e., from a sufficient distance.
