Got a dog with a pretty significant cut on the actual pad of her foot. I'm not sure if it's from a hog we caught and I just didn't notice it, or if she just cut it on something in the woods. Just wondering if there's anything I can do to make it heal any faster other than just keeping her off of it. She's definitely favoring that foot pretty good, so I know I don't need to hunt her until it heals up.

Pad cuts are SUCH a pain. If you can, keep it wrapped and change the dressing daily. May have to put an e-collar on her to keep her from chewing the bandaging off. In my experience this would be the fastest method of getting it to heal.
