Is this a healthy scab? Please help

I recommend cleaning it with either vetirycin or hydrogen peroxide and keeping her inside for a few days. When we took Frances to the vet she cut her some little foam donut pads to keep pressure off the wound and wrapped her up in ridiculous birdie foot mittensView attachment 1203066

That's a hilariously cute photo!

I agree with Aart that peroxide should not be used on a continuous basis.

When dry bandaging, you can rolls of vet wrap very inexpensively at TSC or other farm stores in the horse aisle. It clings to itself and can be easily removed and won't leave a bunch of gunk behind.

What breed is she? Something about her face is just so adorable.

She's a cream legbar! As adorable as she is she also looks eternally irritated lmao

I've been using sports wrap which is pretty much the same thing, along with a few gauze pads on her foot to cushion it.
