Sorry if this triggers a deja vu. Has anyone used "Animalintex" to help remove corns from their hound? A lady we met today in Ledbury this morning said it was effective with her greyhound's situation when left on overnight to remove the offending corn easily in the morning. I'm wondering whether it's more effective in removing more of the corn than flipping the corn away as I've been doing hitherto. I appreciate that getting one's hound to leave the dressing alone would probably be the main problem with the exercise.

I've not heard of it before, but when it comes to corns, anything is worth a try - as long as it won't do any harm of course, and this does look to be safe. If you try it, be sure to report back!

Definitely worth trying - do let us know how it works out.

Ive heard of Animalintex before even thought about trying it for Marley.
It's suppose to be really good.
I'm a member of greyhound with corns on Facebook it gives you all different ideas to help with the corns.
Marley is having a rubbish time with his at the moment, I've been soaking his paw in warm water with epsom salt then applying Burts bees on the corn. I'll try anything.

There’s no sign of the corn reappearing at the moment but as soon as one does (inevitable) I’ll give feedback on the efficacy of Animalintex.

Are you removing the corn yourself?

I took Mabel to the vet last week to check out a cyst she has on her hind leg. That was fine - sent off for a biopsy and of no concern but just to keep an eye on it.

As to the corns, they had developed somewhat so I asked about using Animalintex. The vet said that she had had little or no experience with corns on sighthounds but praised the efficacy of Animalintex provided that the dog would tolerate the dressing. Rather than selling me Animalintex (at an inflated price) she said that, as I was able to flip the corns myself, I should continue doing that. I can only advise that, if Marley can tolerate the dressing without removing it himself, have a try with Animalintex. Best of luck. Will he tolerate a bootee (sp)?
