Thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach! I recommend that you keep a clean towel on top of the wound and have her evaluated by your veterinarian for further assessment and treatment. It is important to make sure she is not bleeding from a wound that for example requires further local therapy with wound closure. Good luck and best wishes!
