I had this problem with one of my dogs in the past. If your dog is in a lot of pain take it to the vet. When this happened to my dog I took him to my vet and was given an antiseptic wash and antibiotic cream to treat his exposed nerve. This is a sensitive area for a dog so you want to watch for discomfort during walks or activity. My dog Spawn was a 110lb Pitbull and he was whimpering in the corner and handing me his paw for days when his nail was completely ripped off during a vigorous walk. The nail eventually grew back.

What to do when a dog breaks a nail!?

If a dog breaks a nail, first assess the injury for bleeding or pain. If the nail is bleeding, apply a clean cloth or bandage to control the bleeding and use a styptic powder if available. Keep the dog calm and prevent them from licking the wound. If the nail is severely damaged or if there's excessive bleeding, it's best to consult a veterinarian for proper treatment.

What do you do for a smashed claw on your dog?

If its the nail, you may want to take it to the vet to check for any further damage and they should be able to tell you what the dog needs. There is a nerve within the nail and if a nail is even clipped too high it will cause the nail to bleed. There is a type of powder that is sold specifically for a nail being clipped too high up and it will stop the bleeding. If there isn't a veterinary office open o no stores sell the specific product, keep the area clean as it may be susceptible to infection, depending on the damage. The area may also be sensitive so don't force the dog to walk in the snow or anything that may possibly irritate the area.

What to do with dogs that has nail ripped out?

You may want to take her to the vet to have it examined. The danger is infection. The vet may need to cut the nail back further into the quick to speed healing and to help make sure the nail will grow back normally. Some vets prefer to anesthetize the dog for the procedure, other more "old school" vets will cut it while the dog is awake. It's very painful but over quickly and will actually minimize the dog's discomfort because they don't have an exposed quick after the cut.
