I used cornstarch to stop the bleeding when Belle ripped off her nail
many years ago. Such a blood curdling scream she let out sent me racing
from the other room!!Not sure how she did it.
I took her to the vet the next day as her toe was swollen. He gave me
an ointment called Tritop (combination antibiotic, anti-inflammatory,
anesthetic). She limped for a day or two, but was otherwise ok.
It took months before the toenail grew back.
