Apply some Neosporin to the wound and then keep an eye on it. The thing you want to watch for is infection. If it starts to get very red then you'll want to take your rosy to the vet for some antibiotics. Otherwise keep applying a little Neosporin every day or two through the healing process...it will keep the skin there soft and allow better shedding in that spot.

:My little Rosy got stuck on a piece of duct tape and it tore some skin off (bad - deep). I've called every vet in the area and nothing is within miles away. Please, any help is appreciated and needed.

:Thanks,
