My dog cut the pad on her paw...?

Question

It's a pretty deep cut, but no longer bleeding. She appears to be in a significant amount of pain, ie: limping, moping, favoring the leg while standing, etc. etc. She is responsive to food, and is anxious to be with me wherever I go...which is normal. Is there anything I can do for her to help ease her pain while this cut heals? If it would have been on myself, I would take some advil and stay off the foot. Which I have been trying to encourage her to do, but I know it's not good to give a dog ibuprofen. Is there anything I can give her?

Answer 1

Call your vet, talk to them about the amount of baby aspirin they can have.  They'll be able to tell you the dosage.

Answer 2

if it is a small dogs give it a baby asprin if it is large then a adult asprin also what are you putting on her pad to help it heal.

Answer 3

I would put neosporin on it and keep it wrapped. That happened to my black lab and thats what I did. The pads heal pretty quick.
