amhailte, my staffie just cut her pad pretty seriously on the weekend. The vet told us to use Paidaid, but she was just too hyperactive and she ended up aggrivating it more. She has been to the Vet twice now to get it dressed and has to go back tomorrow as it just kept bleeding, she is also on antibiotics. It really is important to keep them still, but so hard to do!
good luck with it!
