Treatment of skin wounds in pets is a very common activity for practicing veterinary surgeons. Existing therapies for skin wounds take the form of surgical reapposition or grafting to close large skin defects, and the use of barriers and antimicrobial agents that maintain normal wound healing biology rather than accelerating and improving wound healing.1 With improved understanding of wound biology comes the possibility o
