Dog bitten by another dog

Posted By Ms.lily (Hesperia, California, San Bernardino) on 04/23/2011

I need help! My dog was bitten by another dog she's in pain and has a bad wound under her thigh. I dont know what to do, I washed her with soap and water, I cleaned her up with water w/salt. the next day I washed her again and I started using HP to clean her up. But the wound is starting to smell. What can I use? Ive been reading the posts, but still not sure what to use. I need to know what I can give her and what I could apply on the open wounds? Please Help me, I have no money to take her to a vet.

unfrtunately you might need to take her to a vet. If the wound is starting to have foul smell, this means it is getting infected and at this point, depending on how deep the wound is, no home remedy may take care of it. Sorry! This happened to my dog last year. Maybe the vet could work out a payment plan?
