That sounds good. I suppose it could have been even worse.

My Papillon, Spicy, won't stop climbing over baby gates and about 4 months ago she pulled her nail off climbing. Vet. said to put peroxide on it a few times a day. It's growing back now. My deceased Chihuahua lost a nail when she went into convulsions at 3 1/2 months old when she got a puppy shot, so they put her in a cage and let her flop, (the idiots) and the nail never grew back right. It looked like a stump.
I'm glad to hear your baby is doing well.

Duke ripped out his dew claw one day this summer. No idea what happened as we were outside playing and all of a sudden he was limping.

It hurt him for a while, but now a few month later, you can't tell.

Hoping for a speedy recovery!

My black lab, Crystal, once ripped out a nail out in the yard somehow. I found it hanging like you did and then it was gone. It did grow back, but it always kinda stuck upward after that rather than forward like they usually do.

wow, glad to hear that he is doing better today.

Dont worry! When Tess was 4 months old I accidently dropped a scrubbing bubbles refill on her foot. Blood everywhere. I felt AWFUL. Thankfully it was just 1 toenail that fell off and never grew back. After checking her out and washing her tiny paw I applied neosporin. She was fine,just a little shaken up. To this day I wont take anything off a top shelf if she is at my feet.

This happend to Poppy a couple of weeks ago.
I went out in the car and left her with my dad, he said she was just sitting by his feet on the floor and yelped really loud. He picked her up but couldnt find anything wrong with her.. there was no blood and she didnt mind you touching her anywhere (including her feet) so he couldnt understand what had happend. She was really clingy for about an hour after I came home, so I was sitting with her on my knee and stroking her chest when I felt something hard.. It was her nail.
There must have been a little tat in her chest and she must have gotten it stuck in there and ripped it off.
I got it out and there was no blood, but this is the strangest thing... I checked all of her feet to see which claw was missing and they were all there :/

Just wanted to give an update on Louis' toenail. Luckily it is already growing back! I didn't think it would happen that fast.

This is the first time I am seeing this. Glad Louis is doing okay and ready to dance the night away at the ball.

That was fast! Now I'll know not panic if it should happen to one of my boys. I'm glad Louis' little toe is good as new.

I'm glad it is growing back and everything is fine now. Mine all huddle around the heater vent it's their favorite spot.

I was afraid that it wouldn't grow back, but luckily it is. The nail is short, but his nails grow fast.

Whenever I can't find Louis, I know to go look for him on the heater.
