ResumoHealing of cutaneous wounds in dogs is a routinely seen process. Nowadays, various methods of treating and healing wounds by second intention have been studied in order to obtain rapid and quality healing, including alternative methods of wound treatment. A walking dog was treated at the Veterinary Hospital of the Faculty of Social and Agrarian Sciences of Itapeva, with clinical signs of an arachnid accident. Clinical examination revealed that the right pelvic limb was swollen and ulcerated. After ambulatory care, the animal remained hospitalized for two days and received support treatment with 0.9% physiological solution associated with vitamin B12 and glucose 50%; ceftriaxone, hydrocortisone and morphine. The animal continued to be cared for in the kennel of the same institution, with daily dressings for 3 weeks and integrative treatment with Traditional Chinese Veterinary Medicine using acupuncture and indirect moxibustion. These dressings were composed of crystal sugar mixed with rifamycin and non-adherent wafers, in the morning and afternoon, after the acupuncture and indirect moxibustion sessions, which lasted 10 minutes. At the end of the 3 weeks of treatment the wound presented total regression, closing completely.
