What are safe antibiotics for golden jackals?

For superficial and deep wounds (a sensitivity test not available)

Examine a Grams-stained smear and choose a suitable antibiotic.

Most antibiotics for dogs should be safe and effective to use, provided there is no resistance or allergy.

Will Amoxicillin (long acting) be a good choice as stat dose?

Henry Labuschagne, [01 Sep 2023 at 12:47:02]:

I would use Amoxyclav @ 15mg/kg. BID plus metronidazole @ 20mg per kg BID.

Plus Protexin, per os.
