bleeding
Dog Question: MY LG DOG BROKE HER NAIL TODAY RUNNING AT THE
PARK AND THE TIP IS STILL ATTACHED BUT DIDN'T SEEM TO BLEED. I
CAN'T AFFORD TO TAKE HER TO THE VET TO HAVE IT FIXED.WHAT
SHOULD I DO TO HELP HER?
Hi Traci,
Sorry to hear about your dog.
You could try and carefully trim the nail back, but be
careful your dog might be painful.
Normally I would just remove the nail and bandage the foot
if there is bleeding.
But since you are at home I would only trim enough of the
nail back and keep a close eye on it.
It could bleed more so be careful if you dog goes on
furniture.
