Hello, we're first time dog owners and our 2 year old dog has just come back from his walk with a bleeding foot. We've bathed him and looked at the problem and one of his claws on his front left foot has been torn off. It seemed to have stopped bleeding after the bath but now he is in his bed, licking it and of course it has started bleeding again. I guess it will grow back but do we need to bandage it? Can he still go for walks? If we do need to bandage it, what's the best way to do it on a dog? I'm hoping we don't need to take him to the vet and can treat it ourselves.
Any comments gratefully received :)
Thanks.
