Same here. Most of my dogs look like they have been thru a war.

I've got a few with some nice scars on their chest and ears tore up and my lil pup has a cut on her face one of my females tails is already starting to get raw at the tip. Thats the life of a rabbit dog.

I keep a tube of Triple Antibiotic cream in the dog box so at the end of the hunt I can do any doctoring that may need to be done. I just coat the inside on the ear if needed.

ISP Ointment will get them cleaned right up, that stuff is great for nicks and cuts
Here's a link to their website

Get you a spritzer bottle of Gentle Iodine (no alcohol), this will toughen them up and prevent any infection (they will be stained for awhile tho...).

ill never forget the first time one of my beagles came back with a rip in his ear.. i thought he had cut a main artery the way it was bleeding. i just took a rag and wiped it off. i now keep some vasoline and triple anitbiotic cream in the dogbox incase they get a bad cut on them. those ears definitely put out the blood too.

Bag Balm works great, it is thick enough to stay on and is also an antibiotic. However, it does little to toughen em up.

After I get done running, I will put some Neosporin on their ears if they look really bad. Then after that dries will coat it with a little Bag Balm. My hound hates anything around his ears, guess he thinks it'll attract a mate. I guess female dogs like brair scars

[S.R.Patch]

I don't understand what you're doing...
You want the ears like leather, not like a babies butt...
Don't soften them and make them more prone to more cuts...all you want is to dry them up and keep infection out...

thanks guys for the help i`ll try that my dogs ears get so scratched up that they look like they went through a shrader and you can`t even touch them they wine. my dogs are getting so tired now that they don`t want to hunt that good any more i`ve been running every day except Sundays and there getting wore out. We been running 11 to 14 rabbits aday and they have been haveing some real long runs 2 and 3 hours on 1 rabbit some just get up and go to hole. But we get a few for the pot not many lol.

You may want to give them a few days off if they're that tired. Think of them like people. They need a little time for their muscles to heal or you will end up with an injury...

Sulfadine , put it on a sponge and keep the sponge in a ziplock bag . I keep mine in the top storage of my dog box when you load or unload dogs use it on all cuts and scraches tails too.
