    A little bleeding

    I just brought Schmee back from the vet after having her staples removed (I know...I was a little upset when they told me they used staples and I nearly fainted when I saw them). The vet had to break a scab to get on of them out and she's bleeding just a teeny bit, not much at all. It doesn't seem to bother her, but I'm wondering if I should use some kind of antiseptic to keep it clean. If y'all think I should, I remember reading that hydrogen peroxide is bad for dogs. What should I use?

    never heard that peroxide is bad for dogs but I learn something new every day,,won't hurt to use some bacitracin on the bleeding area...unless you pup licks it off...if is also OK just to leave it alone but don;t let the pup go out and lie in the dirt for a coupl days
