For severe external bleeding, make sure the scene is safe, call emergency services, find the source, and apply steady, firm direct pressure. If life-threatening bleeding is from an arm or leg and is not controlled by pressure—or pressure cannot be maintained—use a commercial tourniquet if available and you are trained. For an appropriate deep wound…
The dogs are finally separated, and your dog seems alert—but you find a small puncture under the fur. It may look minor, yet a bite can crush or tear tissue well below the skin and can injure the chest, abdomen, neck, joints, or internal organs. Calm first aid can reduce further harm, but it cannot…
A dog that suddenly refuses to use one leg may have a fracture, but severe sprains, joint dislocations, torn ligaments, paw injuries, and neurologic problems can look similar. You cannot reliably confirm or rule out a broken bone by watching the dog walk or gently feeling the leg at home. A dog leg fracture —…
Canine intubation gives an anesthetized dog a patent airway, a route for oxygen and inhalant anesthetic, and a way to provide positive-pressure ventilation when needed. It can also reduce aspiration risk when the airway is no longer able to protect itself. It is not a procedure for an awake pet or an untrained owner. Intubation…
During a pelvic exam, a clinician may notice that the cervix looks red, swollen, bumpy, enlarged, or different from expected. These changes can be worrying, but many have a benign cause. It also helps to separate two parts of the visit: A Pap test does not diagnose a visible lump, ulcer, or polyp. In the…
Foley catheter insertion drains the bladder through a tube that stays in place. A small balloon holds the catheter inside the bladder. The goal is the same for male and female patients, but the anatomy and common problems are different. Male insertion follows a longer urethra. Female insertion depends on seeing the urethral opening clearly…
Urinary catheterization helps drain or collect urine. It can relieve a full bladder, support certain procedures, or help a clinical team track urine output. It also has risks. A catheter can cause infection, pain, blockage, and urethral injury. These risks rise when the device is used without a clear reason or left in longer than…
A difficult dog blood draw is rarely solved by pushing the needle farther or trying more times. Poor jugular filling, unstable restraint, patient movement, excessive syringe suction, partial needle placement, and an unsuitable collection system can all produce the same frustrating result: no blood, interrupted flow, a damaged sample, or a growing hematoma. This guide…
The external jugular vein is a useful blood-collection site in dogs because it is large, has brisk flow, and can provide an adequate diagnostic sample without using a peripheral vein that may later be needed for an IV catheter. Those advantages only apply when patient selection, restraint, vessel occlusion, needle control, and post-draw pressure are…
A laceration is a tear or split in soft tissue caused by trauma. Some lacerations are straight and clean-looking; others are jagged, crushed, contaminated, or attached to a skin flap. The visible opening is only part of the injury. The same wound may also involve blood vessels, nerves, tendons, joints, or bone. This guide explains…
