White-out on Face

lindseylatch · 12-08-2005, 01:06 PM

This is awful, but we have a puppy at the office, and it managed to get a hold of a bottle of white-out and break it. She now has white out all around her mouth.

We called the vet, and they said to get her to eat some canned food or soaked bread, just in case she injested it.
Now, the problem is that it got all around her mouth, and now it's dried. the vet said a warm wet cloth, but that ain't doin' it. Does anyone have any tips?

Just a side note, the puppy will no longer be coming to the office...

What type of hair are we talking about? Can you cut it off? I would say it will probably just crust of naturally in a few days from personal experience of getting white out on myself. The easiest way is to cut it out if possible, but otherwise I would think warm water should work, but this is just a guess. Good luck

my sister's boyfriend put whiteout of Josefina's nose and snout, we just had to wait for it to wear off.

she's got short hair, she's a boston/chihuahua. it seems to be flaking off, i'm just worried about her injesting more of it as it comes off.

I guess it would all depend on how much we're talking about. If it's a nickel size amount of less, my guess is that it will naturally come off without any harm.
Rubbing the hair with the white out between your fingers may help to crumble it off.

most of it flaked off by the end of the day. The puppy was fine as of yesterday morning. But she will only be making guest appearances from now on.
