No joke, keep some maxi pads in your pocket and a roll of electrical tape- being its smaller than duct tape. That will get you to the truck then you can doctor it real good. I used pads alot when I hog hunted and the dogs would get cut up bad.


I forgot to add, tape the ear to the head so the dog dont sling it, and get you a pump bottle of blue lotion usally can find at tractor supply. Most cuts on a ear don't need anything other than blue lotion it's just a disinfectant.

I had an english male that stuck his big head into a whole and came out with the coon attached to his ear. Bled like a stuck pig and he kept shaking his head and busting it open...I got some of the cheap version of New skin it is in the shaving isle at local drug store. heads up 1st layer will sting some but after that they dont mind. Ears are the worst.

I always used plain old flour. It always worked real good for use, then when we got home, cleaned the wound real good and super glued it shut. Would heal up nice and good as new. If I cut a nail too close, I just put flour on it, that stops it.

it'll stop by itself. the dog won't bleed out. put "cut heal" on it when you get home to keep flies off and prevent infection.

when you get caught short in that position take off your sock/cut the toes off the sock/fold the ear flat and pull the sock up over the dogs head/holds it tight and good press to stop bleeding. dont laugh it saved my old female one nite. and i wouldnt hesitate to do it again.

Ear wounds bleed bad. Generally they look worse than they truly are. I would avoid all the blood stops and blood clot products, you don't need them and will do more harm than good. Wrap the injured portion of the ear so it lays flat with some gauze or other absorbent material and apply pressure until it stops. I am talking pressure that will make the dog almost wince. This will eventually stop the bleeding. If you add a bunch of junk to the ear, all you will do is make the dog shake its head to try and get it off and this will start the blood flow again. I have had ears split from the base to the tip and chunks torn completely off. Applying pressure stops the flow every time. Then you can determine if it needs stitches or staples and proceed accordingly. Try to avoid wrapping the ear for any length of time. If you apply any kind of antibiotic ointment, don't use the fancy triple stuff, avoid it if you can. A thin layer of vaseline to keep it moist until it scabs over good is all you need, if even that. Administer antibiotic orally or through the skin. Keep him crated if possible until it scabs over. Flies in the summer and cold temps in the winter will be miserable for him.

Everybody done told you how to stop the bleeding , so I am not going there .... But what I would like to know is what happen to a sporting chance , as my old buddy Jerry use to say we give that coon a sporting chance . He could come down the tree and whop all them dogs and walk away , the choice was his ... Sounds like the coon was winning and yall took away his choice.. Lol

Yeah, but you don't get to make a mess mixing up a potion and wasting up flour if you do that!

I use pressure to stop bleeding,dry thoroughly & super glue'um up. Our "Bum" hound has had his ear's split numerous time's & I've put'um back together each time. (don't want my coonhound gettin over looked at a show for scar tissue )

Like was said,it heel's up & you can't see a scar. You need to control the head shakin but lot's of good advice already mentioned on how to do that. Only thing I may do different is I put them in a crate. For some reason there is not any head shakin while in there but look out when ya let'um out!
