Unfortunately Tysonlee needs to see a veterinarian. This wound needs to be debrided and cleaned up and then properly closed. It has been too long to just glue the wound or close it without proper care before hand. Here is a website that may help financially: http://www.dogheirs.com/resources-affordable-veterinary-care/ You can also look into care credit. This is a 0% interest credit card for medical bills. In the mean time I recommend putting an elizabethan collar on so that Tysonlee does not lick the wounds. He also should get some antibiotics to help with an infection. Thank you for using PetCoach.
