Stop Rot

I had one like that and I kept it soaked in stop rot and injected ears, eye lids, and the lips. It worked really well. Jeff

thanks for all your help

inject water

if you use a very small hypodermic needle like used for diabetics and inject water with a little lysol every half inch or so and it should be fine. it will soften in a few minutes if it is thawed.inject only skin deep or just under the skin. ron
