Onceuponadime Posted January 30, 2018 Report Share Posted January 30, 2018 Hi, I'm asking this for UK husky owners. Alabama rot is doing the rounds in my area. Not a lot is known however advice is saying wash mud off dogs feet after a walk. Does anyone know of a good disinfectant that is safe to add to the water to wash my dogs feet. I'm not taking him to any areas where a dog has come down with it but it is in my area so I would rather be safe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BingBlaze n Skyla Posted January 30, 2018 Report Share Posted January 30, 2018 I know hibiscrub is a safe disinfectant it's used on wounds and surgeons use it before surgery etc too , safe for pets but it can be costly a small bottle is 5.99 from boots but u can dilute it down so might last a bit longer that way , not sure about anything else Sent from my [device_name] using http://Husky Owners mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Onceuponadime Posted January 31, 2018 Author Report Share Posted January 31, 2018 Could people put links as to where I can purchase the disinfectants as I'm sure others in the UK will find it helpful too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BingBlaze n Skyla Posted January 31, 2018 Report Share Posted January 31, 2018 Thanks I will take a look is it safe if my dog licks his feet after I wash them. It doesn't taste nice , I've never had my dog lick after using it but one of my rats did b despite an obvious bad taste in her mouth she was fine, made sure she ate after tho as water will froth it up a bit lol Sent from my [device_name] using http://Husky Owners mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Onceuponadime Posted January 31, 2018 Author Report Share Posted January 31, 2018 I ordered some Leucillin from amazon. I ordered it as it's a spray bottle. Thanks for the responses. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Markulous Posted February 2, 2018 Report Share Posted February 2, 2018 Sounds like a plan I see the latest theory is a bacteria which enters through the skin, so washing off mud, etc a good plan. This latest idea from someone who recognised the symptoms in fish - and it's the toxins produced by the bacteria, not the bacteria itself ‘Breakthrough’ in identifying cause of fleshing-eating Alabama rot deadly to dogs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
