May I suggest that you forget the needle and suture, instead talk to your vet about a surgical stapler. If the vet agrees, have them show you the proper use. It is very quick.

I would still bring the peroxide. I don't use it to clean wounds. Mixed with water, it induces vomiting in a dog. It acts very rapidly by the way. I have a large syringe with some surgical tubing on the end, that I put together. I have used it to force the mixture down the dog's throat. Especially useful when you catch dog lapping up anti-freeze, etc.
