We Have A 3 Year Old Husky That Has 2 Claws Located On Different Paws That Keep Bleeding …

We have a 3 year old Husky that has 2 claws located on different paws that keep bleeding at the tip of the claw multiple times per week when she is outside in our backyard. The cause of the bleeding is not from trimming her nails too short and she is not one to be racing around the yard, potentially injuring her claws. We finally were able to get a good look at the tip of her claw to see where the source of the blood was coming from. Please see photos. It looks like the 2 claws that are bleeding may have broken so far down that there is a bubble of tissue exposed on the tip. We are not sure how or why this could happen and are desperately seeking some information and guidance about what the problem is and how to prevent the bleeding from recurring in the future. Please help! Thank you!

    Hello,
    Please see a veterinarian as soon as possible. In cases like this I always want to make sure that there is not a clotting problem and there are a few diseases that huskies get where rhe nails do not grow properly. These are things to talk about with your vet.

    Take him to the vet. If u have another they could have been playing and one could have been a bit hurt by the other.

Last Week He Cried And It Was Bleeding Underneath His Nail On His Back Paw…

Last week he cried and it was bleeding underneath his nail on his back paw. We stopped the bleeding and he seemed to be ok besides favoring it a little and licking. We eased up on his physical activity for a few days and he seemed to go back to normal. Yesterday morning he started bleeding a little and won’t let me get close look at the paw and licks it more. He still loves to play and eats normally. Is it something that will heal on its own or should I take him in to see our vet?

    that looks infected, he probably broke a nail under the skin and it has gotten infected. I would take him to the vet.  You could soak his paw in warm water and epsom salts and it may help the pain some
