Do you really need to be told to take your dog to the vet????

She has a broken nail right by her paw? You mean she has a broken nail, did you cut it or did it just break? Did it bleed? If it bleeds apply some baking soda to it, it will absorb it. Since dogs don't walk directly on their nails, unless really long, the pain would have been right away and for a little bit.

Honestly, yes. Just like if you broke your own toenail, there is no fix. Just treat her extra nice for a few days, it will get better. If she seems to be in alot of pain, take her to the vet, so she can be given something for the pain. BTW, do NOT under ANY circumstances, give her tylenol. Hope this helps!

It depends on if it is bleeding and you can’t stop the bleeding. It also depends how close into the toe of the paw it is broken and if it has affected the tendon. It is best if you get it to the veterinary so that a “realistic” evaluation can be made.

It could get very painful. My best advice would be to go to the vet if she shows sign of pain like limping. If she seems happy and is running around fine u should just keep monitering it.

You can do nothing at home but keep it bandaged until you get her to a vet. They will probably remove the nail, give you some anti-imflammatory meds and possibly some antibiotics

No, of course not! Unless it's bleeding, the animal isn't feeling anything, do you feel anything when you break a nail?

If she cries or cant walk on it than go get it checked on because it might be infected if its broken to far.

Break one of your nails and see how it feels.
