Guest guest Posted March 6, 2003 Report Share Posted March 6, 2003 tea tree is good.... or salve with goldenseal, comfrey, plantain... cayenne will stop the bleeding. Doc's total healing powder is good also.

Guest guest Posted March 7, 2003 Report Share Posted March 7, 2003 Tamara, if it isn't bleeding hon, you didn't even crack it close to the quick. She probably needs a trim anyway. You can do this yourself with a doggy nail trimmer. If her nails are pink, you will even be able to see where the quick ends inside the nail. Simply clip close to this and it won't bleed. If you accidentally do clip too close, just have some cayenne powder and a q-tip ready to apply it to the bleed and it will act as a stiptic. If you do not want to do this yourself, it usually costs around 6 dollars at your local vet. Just call them ahead of time and tell the technician you want a nail trim only.
