My dog's cut was super glued with hair. Will it cause infection?

Question

If I super glued a cut on my dog late last night, but couldn't get every little price of hair out. I got as much as I could. Would this bring an infection or not necessarily? Pet's info: Dog | Labrador Retriever | Male | unneutered | 1 year and 4 months old | 50 lbs

Hello, not necessarily. It looks like it is apposed sufficiently enough, however, sure glue is not something used for wound closure and may interfere with the healing of the laceration. I would monitor the area for any redness, discharge, swelling, pain, or purple/black discoloration in the surrounding skin and bring him to your veterinarian if you note any of the above. Best of luck!
