Do you have a pic? Is the whole leg gone?

 

[Amanda8]

Yes whole leg is gone. We poured proxcide and cleaned her up and and wrapped around her body. She’s drinking water and inside. I hope she makes it.

not something I am familiar with, but don't use more hydrogen peroxide as it will kill good tissue, if you have some electrolytes or gatorade give her a bit to help and keep warm to prevent shock

 

[Miss Lydia]

Is she bleeding? no more peroxide it's okay for intimal would cleaning but betadine would be best. Main thing is infection. The leg is gone all the way up to the body?

 

[Miss Lydia]

Keep her inside and quiet especially keep her from flies. If you can get a pic that would be a good idea.

I refer to @casportpony for a wound like this.
