Licking wounds: Does dog saliva actually heal wounds?

Licking wounds: Does dog saliva actually heal wounds?
Share on FacebookShare on Twitter

Our canine companions often instinctively lick their wounds, and it’s tempting to believe their saliva holds some magical healing power. While there’s a sliver of truth to this, the reality is a bit more complex. Let’s delve into the science behind dog licks and wound healing.

A Smidge of Soothing for Wounds:

Dog saliva does possess some properties that might aid wound healing. It contains enzymes with mild antibacterial properties, potentially helping fight infection. Additionally, the rough texture of a dog’s tongue can help remove dirt and debris from the wounded area.

The Bigger Picture: Wounds and Why Licking Isn’t Ideal

However, the benefits are outweighed by the drawbacks. Here’s why letting your dog lick their wounds might not be the best idea:

Bacterial Bonanza in Wounds: A dog’s mouth harbours a multitude of bacteria, some potentially harmful. Licking can introduce these bacteria to the wound, increasing the risk of infection.

Irritating Itch and Wound Discomfort: Excessive licking can irritate the wound, delaying healing and potentially leading to self-inflicted injuries.

Slowing the Show: Moisture and Wound Healing

Constant moisture from licking can hinder the formation of a protective scab, a crucial step in wound healing.

The Verdict: Skip the Licks

While dog saliva might have some minor antiseptic qualities, it’s far from a miracle cure. In fact, it can hinder healing and introduce infection. When your dog has a wound, the best course of action is to visit the veterinarian for proper cleaning, treatment, and a protective cone (also known as an Elizabethan collar) to prevent licking.

Remember: We love our furry friends, but veterinary care is the best medicine for wound healing.
