Georgia has horrible knots and mats in her long fur and we use a combo of brushing and cutting to get them out. Tonight I accidently cut her skin with I was getting one out! There's a little opening in the skin, almost like the top layer (with the fur) is lifted a bit. I dabbed it with with hydrogen peroxide and and there tiny spots of blood on the tissue but its not actively bleeding. Just looks white/reddish under the skin.
I feel so bad - I started crying!
Has this happened to anyone else?
Do you think she needs to go to the vet for stitches or glue?
Will it heal on its own?
I never want to use scissors on her mats again! It always made me nervous and this is why!
