Have you tried clipping tiny bits off 1-2 times a week? Or filing it down? I'd start there if you haven't already tried. |
He started chewing his paw last night and I looked and saw it was almost a complete circle. It freaked me out so I took him in today.
I haven't tried filing it down or anything. I don't want to do anything that's going to hurt him or make it worse.
Maybe this isn't a common thing.
