Pad on right front foot

[Sharon]

I just did an hour lesson with my agility instructor Erin Schaefer and we ran on rubber matting.I have always ran on this before but after getting home Sting was in the car licking his foot.The padding on his foot is raw.Do I take him to the vet or put anything on it or just leave it alone.It has to hurt him.

I know a lot of people who swear by New-Skin liquid bandage. Just clean/rinse it out first, then apply.

Aww poor guy! As long as they are just raw and not ripped I would use the New Skin and put him on crate rest for a day or so.

If you have a cone to prevent his licking then I would clean well and put calendula cream on them. I have a personal preference for the one I buy and if you want to know the name then PM me. It will take the burning stinging out and heal the scrapes really quickly.
