If you cannot get any granulex, I use saline  with strong Iodine mixed.  Wash 
the wound out daily with this.   Nitrofurazone ointment also works good.   I 
prefer Iodine.  I had  a ewe with a leg bite from a Husky that was down to the 
bone....   I  used the iodine every day for 6 weeks and 5 ccpenn erery other 
day for 3  weeks.   Then gave up...   I could not tell any difference  in the 
wound after a week.  It healed on its own.  It developed a hard  horn like 
material over the wound that stood out from the leg like a  flap.   after 2 
years 
this flap fell off and it bled for a little  while.  after another 2 months 
you cannot tell where the leg injury  was...  
Keep the flies off, ( winter will help) and it will heal  up.   My ewe had 3 
lambs while all this happened....
