I cut the nails of my puppy and it begin to bled what to do.
just wait ?

Put pressure directly on the wound to stop the bleeding

You should be fine, just wait. You probably cut them a bit too short and cut some of the skin.
It will heal. Just keep him away from dirty stuff for a while... if you have dog shoes put them on for his walks, but either way he should be fine




Eh, unless it's gushing blood I'm pretty sure it'll be okay

Clean it out with soap+water and apply pressure with a wet towel on the area where the bleeding is.

I say it's better than just waiting it out

why are you cutting your dogs legs anyway?

Next time you should use a file, it'd be safer for the pup but it'll take longer. Or cut as very minimal as you can and file how ever much else.

My irl job is working with animals , When you cut your dogs nails and you go too deep with the cut you have just cut through the front of its Tenders.
Nothing you can really do but clean the blood that falls , Unless you have a local petstore open , Id suggest going there and getting the nail bandaid , Its anywhere from 5$-6$
It fits over there nail and helps heal the wound.



This is a good option , But with most dogs and cats when using a file it can leave iritating "grinders bumps" on your dog/cats nail and leave them too chew it too shreds.

If you can, run to petsmart or walmart and look for stypic powder. Apply it to the wound with a cotton swab.
Apply pressure after with a paper towel or napkin. Then apply a little ice over the paper towel.

I'd just rush to a vet



How uppity ^___^
