Broken Toenail

Q: my puppy has a nail that is bleeding and pointing outward like a broken finger would look, the pad is not split open and the nail is not crushed or broken

A: The broken portion of nail needs to be removed as it is he movement of the piece that causes the pain and bleeding. You can seal the GI broken stump with cyanoacriylate (surgical or super glue). I can guide you better if we could speak by phone, is there a convenient time and number to reach you?
