Use baking soda. It really does work. Put a little in the palm of your hand then put the dogs nail that got cut to short in to it leave it alone, just watch it for a min or two to make such that it stops. what every baking soda is on the paw it will fall off. The soda will not hurt the dog.

There are powdered products such as Gimborn's Kwik-Stop that can be applied to the bleeding nail. It provides immediate clotting. But be careful, a cut that close hurts your sweet dog.

Dip the bleeding toenail or whatever, into flour. It will stop almost immediately. Tried and true on both our dog and our parrot.

I always keep styptic powder or a styptic pencil on hand, that will stop it, but if you don't have that you can take the dogs nail and run it acros a dry bar of gentle soap like ivory, that will pack the nail, or use flour, baking soda, or baby powder and coat it thick to stop the bleeding.

How do I stop bleeding from a toe nail clipped too short on my dog?
