Use warm salty water to bath the area's that are cut. Don't put creams or anything on the wounds as it can cause infection. Just keep bathing them & keep them as clean as you can.
He may have scratched his eyes so with that i'd say you have to go to the vet to get fluid put in them. The vet will also have to look at his teeth. All you can do yourself is bath the open wounds & scratches.

This is SO sad!!! This dog is in need of medical attention right away. This is the reason the dog population is so overpopulated and our shelters are so crowded.....irresponsible owners. The only thing that you can do for him with no money is to clean up his sores. With broken off teeth how do you expect him to eat? If you cannot get him to a vet you need to pay close attention to him. Make sure that he is able to eat. Add water to his food or give him some canned for now. You really need to FIND the money to get him cared for then I'd suggest finding him a home where his owners will take care of him and have money to get him to a vet regularly.

DUDE Where were you when this happend i dont care if you dont have money you need to go to THE VET ASAP,you dog abuser. Either put it down the dog your self or take it to the shelter do not let it suffer any longer!!!!!! (if you do not have money get off of the dam* computer and offer it to the vet until you pay the bill)
You should go to jail for that,Why have a dog if you cannot afford to treat it,You bought him a chain didnt you??? didnt that cost money too????

If you really care abou the dog, you have two choices:
1) You MUST go to the vet. They can make a payment plan for you. By not going, you are risking your dog's health (infection may set in).
2) Surrender the dog to the local shelter, so he can get the care he needs--TOMORROW.
This dog is suffering and probably in a LOT of pain. Two choices, pick one and follow thru!

You need to take him to a vet. Even if you dont have the money. It is animal cruelty and abuse if you let your dog suffer in that pain. I am sure a vet or RSPCA establishment will bot let the dog suffer. PLeases do not leave this alone to heal by itself, you cant treat it yourself your dog needs and deserves professional care.

Get him to a vet! I can only assume he got tangled in HIS chain.Dogs should never be chained outside.Any pets cost money and a responsible owner will assure that they are healthy and happy.

Most vets, have a medical credit card you can apply for. I know people with horribe credit that got one, most have a $500.00 credit line. We had to apply for one in hard times, and the payments were not bad at all. Call around, see if any vets in your area offer this plan. good luck.

He needs to see a vet ASAP. Its your responsibility to find the money even if you have to borrow it.If you had an injured child you would have to come up with the money some how well its no different with a dog.

Before you get a pet, you need to make sure you have enough money to care for it if it needs to go to the vet! Otherwise its animal neglect! Would you not bring your kids to the doctor if they need it?

WHY do you have a dog if you cannot afford one??? THAT is the question. Pets COST money. You HAVE to provide care. In some states, it is a CRIME to neglect the medical needs of the dog. You could be fined or go to JAIL.......which might be a wake up call for some people!!!!

Get off of the computer. Take it to the pawn shop or sell it to your neighbor. GO TO THE VET.
If you have the money for a computer then you have money to at least offer payments to a vet.

Take the computer with you and offer it to the vet until you can pay the bill off!
