Emergency care for your Siberian Husky

It is a fact of life – accidents happen. If an accident happens to your Siberian Husky, care needs to taken to ensure that your dog is treated properly until you can get him to the veterinarian. That is why it is so important for all dog owners to have some basic first aid procedures under their belts to ensure that all dogs, including Siberian Huskies are well cared for in emergency situations. In fact, you would be wise to keep a first aid procedure manual and some basic supplies on hand to care for your Siberian Husky. The hope is that you will never need to use the supplies, but you will relax in knowing that they are there.

First Aid Supplies To Stock

First, it is a good idea to not only have a first aid kit at home for your family, but one for the care of your Siberian Husky as well. Your doggy first aid kit should include items such as bandages and gauze pads, antibiotic ointment and hydrogen peroxide for lacerations; a cold pack and rolls of cloth for broken bones; and a thermometer, tweezers and cotton swabs for general first aid care for your Siberian Husky. You can even buy ready-made first aid kits for your pet from various companies to avoid having to assemble the kit yourself. Don’t forget to throw in a first aid manual to help you remember procedures to follow in case of an emergency.

First Aid Procedures

Before beginning any type of first aid on an injured animal, the first step should be to provide a muzzle to protect you from a possible animal bite. Even if you are caring for your Siberian Husky that you raised from a pup, a dog that is hurt or frightened may snap in an extreme situation. You can easily create a muzzle from a strip of cloth tied gently but firmly around your dog’s nose. Once you have muzzled your Siberian Husky, you can begin to care for your pet.

First aid treatment tends to revolve around a few categories of injuries. One is a laceration or other injury that is causing significant bleeding. To care for your Siberian Husky when he is bleeding, place a gauze pad directly over the wound and apply pressure to the area until the bleeding stops. If bleeding is severe, you may need to tie a tourniquet on your dog between the wound and your dog’s heart. Keep in mind while caring for a Siberian Husky that is bleeding that tourniquets should only be used in life and death situations, since use of them can be dangerous to your dog.

Another situation that might require emergency care for your Siberian Husky is a possible fracture. The main concern with this type of injury is to immobilize the limb to avoid causing further injury. To care for a Siberian Husky with a possible fracture, use a magazine or towel and two sticks to immobilize the limb before transporting your dog to the veterinarian’s office.

If your dog becomes sick or injured, you want to be prepared to offer the best care to your Siberian Husky until you can get your pet into the veterinarian’s office or animal hospital for treatment. By stocking your home with the appropriate supplies and taking the time to learn some basic first aid treatment, you will be able to effectively care for your Siberian Husky in an emergency. Another concern for you will be caring for your Siberian Husky as he ages.
