This happened to me a few years ago. Chicken vs dog. Can the bird reach the injury? Is it pecking at it?
With the chicken I sealed the wound with superglue. Probably not the greatest but saves me from going for emergency stitches 9/10 times.
The chicken did not accept this treatment, and spent the next week pecking away at the wound until it was all open and scabbed over. Some animals insist on cleaning their own wounds, some don’t.
If the wound is wet you could try diatomaceous earth to clot it and get it to scab. I usually just sprinkle it on, but you could also mix it into a paste.
You could also try feeding a higher protein diet to promote healing and cell regeneration
Try harder, fail better... stay golden.
Eventually everything connects, keep doing the things
