To begin, hang the affected limb of an anesthetized dog placed in lateral recumbency. Secure the dog using a vacuum bean bag positioner. Scrub the limb twice with 4%chlorhexidine gluconate solution, followed by spraying it with 70%ethanol twice.
Place four surgical waterproof drapes around the surgical site. Secure and cover the distal limb with a sterile waterproof sock. Then, add a layer of sterile cohesive wrap for additional protection.
Cover the exposed skin of the entire surgical area with an iodine-impregnated drape.
