Squeez it tight with your hand. Put a small tourniquet on it if you can. Don't leave it on longer than a few minutes at a time. Take it off for a few seconds and put it back on.
If you can put a Hemostat behind the vessel's that is bleeding, just to stop the blood so you can see what your doing. Rinse it off with peroxide or sterile saline.
I like to use Silver nitrate sticks to cauterize the bleeding vessel's. Works good, hurts for a minute if you don't have lidocaine.
If that don't work use Blood stop powder. It works pretty good as an alternative.
I just had the ordeal, not a few nights ago. Ears Bleed Fast and forever.
Don't Panic! It will eventually stop.
If you have Skin Glue call Gluture, you can use it to stop the bleeding. I use it a lot for small cut's.
If nothing else works put a stitch in it if you are comfortable or a staple.
I hope you have some topical Lidocaine to numb the nerve resceptors.
Make sure she is muzzled.
If nothing works take her to a Vet.
If a Vet isn't an option and she is still bleeding, tourniquet it off, dry it off real good and take a Hot Iron and touch to it. A Woman's curling iron will work if it get's hot enough. I've seen a couple guys do it, but I personally have always had the right stuff to get the bleeding to stop.
Don't forget to get her started on antibiotics due to infection. Anti-Robe is best but prescription. If you can't get any good stuff from a vet get some Dura-Pen from TSC and give her a 3 cc shot of Penicillin.
If she lost a lot of blood, give her Vitamin B12 for at least 5 days.
She will need it to rebuild RBC(Red blood cell's)
And put some Molasses that you get from the grocery store in the syrup aisle and put in her water. has a lot of iron and that will be needed to build blood.
Best of luck and hope things turn out well.
If you need anything else just ask.
What do you have to work with??

Just wanted to comment real quick about super glue.
I'm not arguing with you guy's, but I believe this is a bad idea.
The super glue has toxins in it that can mess with the blood production in us as well as animals.
Gluture is glue, but toxin free.
You have to remember if the vessel or vein is bleeding and you put glue on it, you are exposing the glue directly to the blood stream.
Washing it good is an excellent Idea! The bleeding is expelling any foreign bacteria that protruded into the blood stream.
Thanks again,
Best of luck.
Jeremy

I hope you stay around on these message boards for a while. It's always good to have a Vet on hand around these coon hounds. Plus so far your rates have been reasonable.

8hawg,
I'll be around for as long as I'm live and able.
I'm not a Vet yet, but will be soon in the future.
Helping the animal is my best interest, but also helping fellow houndsman is also something that I prefer to do because TOO many vet's take advantage. Especially on office calls,etc..Is it really necessary to charge $45/a visit. No it's not.
So I'm for the people, not for making people broke.
Thanks glad to see someone appreciates my advice. I only try and help when I can!
Jeremy

I've used it for years. Got it for cattle scratches, but works great for dog wounds. Just get a bottle at Vets' office & put in dog box. I fill an aspirin bottle & carry it in pouch or hunting jacket so I have it in the woods while hunting. Take care, Ron.

JMOLLETT i had no idea about glue hurting the blood stream. But thanks for the info. I always carry a tube with me in the woods because you never know when one is going to get cut in the middle of no where. But if the glue you mention works as good as super glue then ill be carryng it from now on. The main thing i like about super glue is the fast dry so you dont have to hold the dog still for hours. I have fixed a bunch with it with no problems but it only takes one time to mess something up i guess.
Thanks and God Bless,

Gluture dry's just as fast.
You can order it online for I think around 24 dollars a tube.
Very compact and easy to use.
I wouldn't suggest anyone using super glue on a bleeding wound.
Thanks,
Jeremy

I forgot to add why super glue shouldn't be used.
Super glue has an ingredient causing the glue to dry as soon as it hit's oxygen. Guess what is in the blood stream that rebuild RBC's?
Oxygen, when the glue gets in the blood stream it prevent Red Blood cell's from being produced. Makes since if you think about it.
Therefore causing you or your dog to be anemic and not sure why. Pretty hard to get the toxins flushed from the blood stream once it get's in their.
Happy hunting,
Jeremy

Brian,
Not trying to be smart here, but some how when I make a post to help some one out, their is always a guy that thinks he know's everything.
I'm in school to be a vet and I get on these boards to try and help people out to the best of my ability!
If you've used super glue for 2-3 times a week. Than good for you! You must be lucky.
Maybe you should get a CBC done on your self and see if you have an Immune Mediated anemia coming on.
It doesn't happen instantly or over night. Could take a week or even a year to see symptom's.
Haven't you ever wondered what that little note on Kid's glue meant, NON-TOXIC?
Mean's it is safe.
Most won't see that on super glue tubes, why? because we adults are suppose to know.
I'm not trying to convince anyone to not use super glue matter of fact I don't convince anyone to do anything. I just want the best for the dog!
Best of Luck,
Jeremy

I had a dog with a bad ear bleeding situation one time and ended up taking him to an old experienced vet and gettin it sewed up. He told me I could have avoided all the complications if I had put super glue on it right after it happened. I asked if he meant regular old super glue and he said yes. I asked if it might do the dog harm and he said it was ok to use on the dog or myself. I'd sure take his word over message board advise any time! I have kept some on hand hunting ever since but never had occasion to use it.

Thanks for the kind words. I try and help everyone out I can.
As you all may know, I'm writing down the names of the one's that is smarter than me, such as bluedogman and Bcoleman, etc.
One of my professor's told me, "You can't help everyone even if you try, they will always know better than you".
I didn't believe him until I got into the profession myself. Now I believe every word he says.
Thansk Ky Hound, Cleo, and hillbilly56 for your kind words. If you ever need anything just let me know, I will do my best to help out.
No I'm not a Vet Tech. The tech's are like nurses for doctor's. I'm a Vet Intern. with 4 years of Internship, I will be licensed.
Best of luck to everyone and Hope BingsHounds got his dog's ear to stop bleeding.
Just want to remind him about the Vitamin B12, Molasses and Antibiotics'.
If you are a holistic person and don't believe in Antibiotics, give Vitamin C. probably around 1000mg Human Grade is the same as dog grade.
Thanks again,
Jeremy
