Dogs instinctively lick their wounds as a way to clean the area and promote healing. The licking action helps to remove any debris or bacteria that could potentially cause an infection. Additionally, licking releases endorphins which can help reduce pain and provide comfort to the dog.
Clean the wound using a gentle antiseptic solution, such as diluted betadine or saline, and gently pat it dry. Monitor the wound for signs of infection like increased redness, swelling, or discharge. If the wound is deep, bleeding heavily, or showing signs of infection, take your dog to the vet for further evaluation and treatment.
