Correct proofreading and binding methods of Dobbin's ears
Another method of dobbin's standing ear
Necessary items: wide tape measure \ red wine cork \ 3m adhesive tape \ adhesive.
(I won't introduce the adhesive in detail, but I think it can be replaced by double-sided tape, which has strong adhesion. )
Steps:
1. Determine the dog's ear length, and cut the tape measure and red wine cork to a suitable position for use.
2. Wrap the tip of the tape measure and the cork with 3M glue.
3. Apply adhesive to the dog's ears (replace it with sticky double-sided tape)
4. Put the prepared tape measure in a proper position in the dog's ear.
5. Apply adhesive to the root of the ear and put the wrapped cork in a proper position.
6. Fix the root and tip of the ear firmly with 3M glue, and finally shape the two ears into an H-shape. Ears should be upright, not tilted to both sides.
Matters needing attention in Dubellier
About ear erection: it is an operation to change the original posture of a dog's ear with drooping ears into an upright posture.
Mainly belongs to preventive surgery, but also belongs to cosmetic surgery! Because ear surgery is not only to make the ears look better, but also to reduce the occurrence of ear canal diseases through surgery, which is the original intention of ear surgery! Some people think this is an unnecessary operation, unfair to dogs and cruel. In fact, surgery can reduce some diseases (such as ear mites and fungal otitis media, which can cause suppurative otitis media, seriously affect hearing and lead to encephalitis or death), reduce the chance of injury (such as accidents caused by playing and fighting), and let the dog have a pair of beautiful ears that match itself. This is a responsible attitude towards the dog's life. We know that most dog breeds are artificially bred, but we are neither God nor nature. The personal purpose in the breeding process is very complicated, and almost every variety has its own unsatisfactory aspects-variety defects or genetic defects. Some are internal, such as personality defects, hereditary cardiovascular diseases, abnormal cartilage metabolism, hip dysplasia, etc. Some are external, such as hereditary umbilical hernia, tooth dysplasia, various skin diseases, including various ear canal diseases. In essence, it is difficult for us to prevent it, and we can only treat it passively at the onset. In addition to spending the owner's energy and money, dogs are also very painful, and often there is no good result and no complete solution. On the other hand, the external situation is much better. We can transform and repair the breed or congenital defect through methods such as dental plastic surgery, ear lifting surgery and umbilical hernia repair. The pain of the dog is temporary. Why not do it?
Du Binquan usually has ear surgery 8 weeks after birth. When you decide to have an otology operation on your puppy, you should make an appointment with the most experienced local otologist as soon as possible to understand what the owner should cooperate with before and after the operation and make preparations in advance!
When you have more than one dog to be operated on, you should prepare isolation equipment for postoperative care, such as fences or dog cages!
Before the operation, you should have done epidemic prevention and deworming once or twice, and there is no abnormal state (such as diarrhea, cough, high body temperature, mental fatigue, etc.). ).
Don't eat or drink 8- 12 hours in advance on the day of operation, in case of suffocation caused by vomiting after anesthesia!
On the day of the operation
Arrive at the hospital on time according to the doctor's appointment, and the nurse will let your dog relax for a while.
By the way, observe whether there is motion sickness or any other abnormal situation, and then obtain some necessary preoperative data by measuring weight, temperature and blood routine indexes to ensure the safety of the operation!
Before the operation, the doctor will communicate with you a few things:
Has your dog ever been ill? Has it recovered? How long has it been?
The health status of other dogs living in the same nest or together.
Have you ever pricked your ears and cared for other dogs before?
Are you mentally prepared? Because this is an irreversible operation!
Have you prepared a clean and comfortable nursing environment for the postoperative puppy at home?
If you can't take care of yourself, is there a trusted assistant to help you?
In particular, explain to the doctor the ear shape you want and listen to his advice.
Then wait quietly. ...
Matters needing attention after operation
1. Don't let your ears droop after sewing. Fix two ears on disposable paper cups to keep them upright during incision healing. (Please refer to the picture)
2. Wipe the wound with Baiduobang ointment at least once a day and inject anti-inflammatory injections twice a day.
3. The stitches can be removed within one week after the operation.
4. You can't bathe the dog immediately after removing the stitches. If it is necessary to take a bath, you can dry clean it with pet-specific dry cleaning powder.
5. After the stitches are removed, the wound will be completely healed, and the scab will be tied up and erected immediately, instead of letting the ears hang on both sides of the head.
Binding period
Many owners of Dubinquan are most concerned about: how long will it take for the dog's ears to stand up after surgery? !
First of all, let's understand how many factors affect the ears to stand up:
1: The operating age is very particular. Many of them were made after 15 days, and were established after 1- 1.5 months.
2. Is the ear canal reconstruction (operation) successful? We used to call it "trumpet transformation"! There is a lot of knowledge about aesthetics and mechanics, traumatology and variety characteristics.
3. Heredity is the key! There is no need to explain this!
4. The intake and absorption of nutrients will also affect the speed of ear erection.
5. Postoperative care, the length of scabbing period depends on your ability!
6. The quality of tying school technology directly affects the result! It depends on the dog. The patience and persistence of the owner will help your dog leave the stick as soon as possible.
7. The exercise of ear muscles is not taken seriously, but it is really the key.
8. The health of the long period of school bondage can not be ignored: diarrhea, dehydration and other conditions will make the ears that have just been erected collapse immediately.
Your Du Binquan puppy is about to enter the formal school-tying period, and the correct school-tying method can ensure that the cut ears look upright and beautiful.
Of course, it takes some patience and unremitting efforts to achieve the goal.
Repeat the knot until the ears are completely upright.
You need patience and responsibility to persist, so that the school binding will become simple.
Your Doberman puppy may be reluctant, but it must face the life it will get used to.
The following is a reference method, which may be helpful to the owners of Adubin Spring.
Before you begin, you should make sure that you have made all necessary preparations:
● Vida toilet paper ● Alcohol cotton ball ● Large adhesive plaster ●3M microporous breathable adhesive tape (made by American 3M company).
● 2 round disposable wooden chopsticks ● Scissors ● An assistant (an assistant is very necessary for you. )
Preparatory work/about to start work
Step 1: Take 9 squares of toilet paper, fold it in half after 3 folds, then take round disposable wooden chopsticks and break them (the length depends on the length of the dog's ears), wrap the round disposable wooden chopsticks into a cylinder with toilet paper, cut off the redundant parts at both ends, and fix them with 3M glue. (reference picture)
Next step; Cut a proper amount of plaster and wrap it on the cylindrical surface. Pay attention to the sealing at both ends of the cylindrical surface.
Next step; Cleaning Du Binquan's ears with alcohol from the inside out is a very important step. After cleaning, ear cutting can prevent the possibility of infection. Alcohol can remove oil stains from ears and make the tape more effective. After washing, the whole ear should be dry and tidy. It is especially important to clean the puppy's ears and keep them dry before tying the dog.
Next step; Now you can let the assistant firmly control it, and don't let it twist too much. Take a cylindrical stick and insert it into the ear canal, the depth should be appropriate, and don't use too much force. Fold your ears and wrap them around the cylinder. I began to stick my ears on a cylindrical stick with 3M glue. Start from the position as low as possible near the ear root (this is very important to prevent the cylinder rod from falling off), then wrap it around the ear tip and seal the exposed part of the cylinder rod towards the ear tip with adhesive tape. Be careful not to roll it too tightly. Sticking is very important, but it doesn't need to be tight. Repeat: don't wrap it too tightly, it will hinder the blood circulation and lead to the necrosis of the dog's ear tip. Wrap it around the other ear in the same way.
In the last step, you will need to mold two ears. First, hold your ears with both hands, and keep them upright and H-shaped until you feel your ears positioned. Then wrap the root of the ear with adhesive tape between the ears, then pass through the top of the head and wrap the other ear in a similar way. Ears should be upright, not tilted to both sides. The first school tie is done.
In autumn and winter, you usually tie it for a week and then open it for air! And tie it up! But it's hot now. You should be diligent, take it apart every 2-3 days to see the condition of your ears, and then tie it up! Don't take apart the tape for more than 6 hours at a time ~ ~ If you smell strange smell during the whole process, it may be an ear infection. If there is infection and inflammation in the ear, don't prick it again. If it gets wet in water, it should be replaced immediately.
Hehe ~ ~ ~ about 2 months, the dog's beautiful ears will be your pride!
PS: Why use 3M tape? Where is 3M?
3M microporous breathable adhesive tape is a professional adhesive tape, which can greatly reduce the probability of infection and inflammation.
In addition, the viscosity is moderate, which can prevent large-scale hair removal of dog ears!
