Vulnus laceratum is a torn wound accompanied by minimal tissue loss caused by a collision object. A local female dog aged 1 year with a weight of 12.7 kg suffered a wound in the neck area that had been infected by wire meshes, decreased appetite, and thinness. Based on the owner's history and visible clinical signs, dog was diagnosed with a vulnus laceratum that was coiled around the neck with a faustal prognosis. Vulnus laceratum is treated surgically by first cleansing the wound with hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) 3%, then removing dead or damaged tissue (debridement) to create new wound so that it can be fused, and continued closure of the wound with sutures (suturing). Postoperatively, dog was treated with antibiotic cefotaxime with dose 30 mg/kg body weight intravenously for three consecutive days followed by administering of cefixime caps 100 mg (twice a day) for five consecutive days along with of bacitracin. On the eighth day postoperatively, the wound looks fused and begins to dry up accompanied with an increase in appetite.
