Ask the Groomer...
Question: " What should I do if my dog ' s nails bleed when I cut them too short?"
Answer: Accidentally cutting your dog’ s nails too short can be alarming, but it’ s important to stay calm and act quickly to prevent infection and help your pup feel better. Here ' s what to do if you make your dog’ s nails bleed:
Stay Calm: Your dog can sense your stress, so staying calm helps keep them calm, too. Gently comfort your dog if they’ re frightened or in pain. Stop the bleeding: Apply gentle pressure, using a clean cloth or gauze to stop the bleeding. You can also use styptic powder, cornstarch, or flour. Just apply it directly to the wound and apply pressure for a few minutes. Clean the wound: Once the bleeding stops, clean the affected area with warm water and mild soap to remove dirt or bacteria. Monitor for infection: Keep an eye on the nail over the next few days. If it gets swollen, red, or has pus, consult your vet for advice or treatment. Consider future nail care: If you ' re nervous about trimming your dog’ s nails in the future, consider using a professional groomer or a vet to help ensure the process is safe for both you and your dog.
