The liquid bandage for dogs is a liquid skin glue for closing the wound and helping stop bleeding. When the bandage is in the bottle, it stays liquid. When it is exposed to the air and your skin, the chemicals in the liquid react to form polymer chains. The polymer binds to the skin, sealing up the wound.
Liquid bandage is called suture replacements or tissue adhesives. It is commonly used by veterinarians to seal surgical incisions after the neutering of cats and dogs. (Application of tissue adhesive in a dog neutering)
