Hello! My GSD nearly ripped the entire nail off his front paw on New Year’s Day. We took him into the emergency vet and the surgery to remove the leftover nail and the sealed off the hole from the removal. The vet didn’t give pain meds at the time and he said he should be normal. I noticed a persistent limp and slight draining from the site like very slight. Today I went back to the er vet who prescribed more intense anti biotics and a pain killer and said if this doesn’t work they may have to remove the entire digit. I’m worried about him and wondering if anyone has any experience with similar injuries and how their dog reacted to treatment etc. thank you so much in advance!
