my lab is about five months old and had his dew claws removed 3 weeks ago. the vet removed the stitches but one did not heal and is infected. he is on antibiotics and i am keeping it wrapped so he can't lick or bite it. i am just wondering what i can use to clean it and if i should put neosporin on it?
