A fight was fierce; serious wounds, both front legs bitten several times, swollen, bleeding, can’t walk. Need a good home method; family won’t allow the vet. Please help.

Hello. Based on your description, the dog was badly bitten and needs prompt veterinary cleaning, suturing, pain relief, and anti-inflammatory care, plus tetanus and bone checks.
If a vet is impossible, first clean the wound blood with saline, apply antibiotic ointment to prevent infection, give oral anti-inflammatories, and put on a recovery collar. But this is incomplete and the wound may heal poorly or get infected.

← Dog eye had an ulcer, treated with anti-inflammatories and drops, healed, then two days later the whole eye turned blue; used ofloxacin and bFGF drops alternately, blue gone, but the black part is crystal-red; 10 days less red but not normal. What now?
