This surgical skin glue dries quickly and is easy to use, The glue is applied to the wound, where it dries quickly to create a flexible, waterproof seal and promote faster healing, so it is a popular choice for veterinarians and veterinary technicians.
CAUTION: Dogs should be prevented from licking or chewing on the wound until the glue has fully dried and the wound has healed.

In the video, the veterinarian is performing breast cancer surgery and sterilization on the Corgi dog. After the surgery, the muscle layer and epidermis of the wound are sutured with sutures. After the suture is completed, surgical skin glue is applied on the surface to bond the wound.
A special veterinary glue (e.g. 3M Vetbond) is a popular type of treatment used in pet hospitals and medical pet clinics to keep the edges of the skin together. It has the same effect as stitches, and only takes about a minute to apply and dry. The glue is blue so you can see the wound.
2. Adhesives take less time than stitches. There is nothing to remove since the adhesive eventually breaks down and is absorbed (internally) or peels and falls off (externally). Therefore, it may be possible to avoid a follow-up appointment. There is a lower risk of infection.
3. For larger wounds, skin glue can be used in conjunction with stitches, first use stitches wounds, and then use liquid skin glue to close the superficial wounds.
Skin glue is applied as a liquid or pasted to the edges of the wound. It takes only a few minutes to set. The glue usually forms a scab that peels or falls off in 5 to 10 days.
usually flakes off by itself in 2-3 weeks. If it is taking longer than 3 weeks, then a greasy ointment, like vaseline or Neosporin, will help it loosen and come off. Ask a veterinarian before doing this, though!
