My dogs nails/claws always bleed when I clip them, how can I stop them from bleeding? General Dog Discussions
My golden retriever is a senior dog whose turning 9 years old soon, but has had these issues ever since he was a pup. I would try cutting his nails and they would bleed, at first I thought I was doing something wrong, but when the vet tried cutting them they too bled pretty bad, and that was the top dead part of the nail, not the darker thicker veiny part. Now my dogs claws are too long as they havent been clipped in ages and he is constantly making himself bleed all over his body while scratching. Do some dogs have problems like this,if so, whats the reason and how can I clip his nails properly or stop the excessive bleeding when i do?<br />
