Haven't noticed this before. Here I am in the interior, not easy to get out for little things like pet care. I know it is not a duanting task, but we always had Kodas nails cut either at the Vet or a pet grooming place. He is better about it now, and armed with clippers today I set about the task. He was doing great, I was doing great, then the next to last nail it slipped past the guard and I clipped into his quick. Little whimper, but dang he bled. I didn't have the styptic stuff, did quick search and flour is a good sub. Tried that, but he just kept licking at it.
Thought we had it stopped pretty good, but headed next door to one of the Rangers places, his wife is a nurse and they have 2 dogs. She had something, it was really for shaving on a face, with roll on applicator. That does not work very well. I had gauze, so I wrapped his paw and bandaged with teh coban wrap. That seemed to work OK.
NAyone else have a good idea for stopping this bleeding if it happens? A better way, aside from getting trans and letting pros do it. He keeps giving me these glares.
