I'm more concerned about the bleeding. When I first got Romeo, I read somewhere how bleeding from cutting their nails too short will take a long time to stop, and you may have to take them to the hospital! Because of their small size, losing that much blood can be really bad! After reading that I decided to not cut her toenails myself and always wait til I go to the groomer...
I would keep a close eye on her! Please keep us updated too...
I hope i didn't scare you, just take any type of bleeding in these small breeds very seriously...
Thanks, I'm calling the vet right now.

BTW, Daisy weighs 9 lbs, so she's not teeny tiny, but still 9 lbs is small for a dog.
