Here are some steps you can take while you are waiting for the vet:
* Control the bleeding: Apply gentle pressure to the wound with a clean cloth or gauze.
* Keep your dog calm: A calm dog will help minimize further injury.
* Transport your dog safely: Make sure your dog is secured in a crate or carrier for the trip to the vet.
Please do not try to treat the wound yourself. A veterinarian can assess the severity of the wound, provide appropriate treatment, and help prevent infection.
