My dog has a small cut on the bottom of his foot, would it be safe to use diluted dettol solution to keep the area clean and prevent infection?

Hemorrhoids, also known as piles are swollen veins around the anal opening or the anal canal. They can be painful and linger on for a long time causing distress. Fortunately, there are a number of home remedies that are as effective and provides fast relief https://tr.im/o6xKI
The main symptoms include bleeding during the bowel movement and itching. The first thing that people do to cure hemorrhoids is get an OTC medication, without knowing their possible side effects.

Have you called your vet to ask? A phonecall will cost you nothing just to check. I'd advise against any home-made remedies untill you have checked with someone more knowledgable first. And the majority of people on this site do not fall into that catergory.

NO!!!!!!!
Johnson's baby shampoo is the best. Avoid Flea shampoos. They are harsh and dry the skin out. Frontline works for fleas and ticks. Use baby products for cleaning purposes but only when really necessary. Dogs aren't meant to be cleaned. But sometimes it's necessary, like when you don't want fox poo on your couch. LOL
Also, Olive oil is good for cleaning dirty ears aswell. Rub in a few drops in the ear and leave for a few hours then clean the ears out with warm water.

Just use a mild antibacterial hand soap to wash it and a triple antibiotic cream after. If the cut is deep, consider bandaging it for a day or two until the wound has healed over.

no. try using an anticeptic that you would use for a baby..eg. sudocrem...Have you bathed a cut in dettol before. Boy does it sting.Why would you want to do that to your dog...

Yes that will be fine. I used to use savlon spray and wound powder on my dogs and horses, dont go buying expensive stuff from the vets or petshop.

Most of the time, human products are not recommended for pets.Reason being, animals react completely different to most medications than we do.For instance, ibuprofen causes liver toxicosis and grapes cause kidney failure.Best thing to do , consult your veterinarian.And please God, NO PEROXIDE!!!
