My dog bumped his eyebrow and has a cut. Does this need medical treatment? Or will something at home work? Pet's info: Dog | Mixed Breed Medium (23 - 60lb) | Male | 45 lbs

Hello, poor Klien! It looks like the scrape is superficial. I would clean it once with soap and water, the monitor it for any bleeding or other discharge. It should be able to scab over and heal on its own otherwise. If it has not healed in 5-7 days you should have your veterinarian evaluate it. You may use a small amount of neosporin if you find it necessary, but be sure it does not come in contact with his eye. Hope this helps.
