doggy first aid kit

[Alex, Chad & Louie]

This weekend we went for a bike ride and took Louie for a run. Just as we were about to turn back I noticed louie seemed uncomfortable so we stopped and checked his paws and found that his front pads were torn, my heart broke for my poor baby! we stopped imediately and Chad went back to get the car while Louie and I waited for him. we had to do an emergency trip to the pharmacy to gather some bangdage, cream etc as we had no supplies to deal with this kind of thing, which leads me to my question. what kind of things should we always have on hand to deal with this king of thing "doggy first aid kit".
Louies paws are doing much better today, we uncovered them last night to get some air to them, he is still limping a little and is having to be carried down the stairs to go to the bathroom (no easy task for me - I weigh 100lbs he weighs 70lbs!) but still in good spirits. its amazing he doesn't blame us! although we both feel terrible about doing this to him. lesson learned I guess. anyway I would really like to have first aid kit put together for any other incidences that we may have. any advise?

That's the hard part...even if you find them in a store, you can't try them on. :-(
You're supposed to measure their feet...hard enough to do.

Thanks Jane, thats perfect. I too hope I do not have to use it! but just in case. I will also be adding a good set of booties to that list.

What a great idea, we have bandages, ointments and such around the house because of the kids, so that stuff is handy when needed at home, but I really like the idea of a kit for Cali when we are away from home.
