So at some point in the hour since we got home from the vet Teddy hurt himself again. He's made a bigger hole than usual this time, but not big enough to need stitches.
To clean his foot I have him stand in a bowl of diluted antiseptic solution in the bath. It's the easiest way to cover a large area without having to touch the wounds and hurt him. I then rinse it with clean warm water and dry it with a towel. When his foot is dry I apply antiseptic cream and cover it with a sock folded to fit, bind it with compression bandage and secure it with micropore tape above his ankle. I wrap it in such a way that he can still straighten and bend his foot as he needs to.
He's been much better about letting me dress his wounds/ foot.
I added some extra padding before putting the sock on tonight to keep the wound closed. I will check on it in the morning again.
