My bitch just like that got nail out never a problem after that the nail could be broken inside the toe bed every time dog runs it ends up like that again 

I’ve got her book here mate. I know there’s def a paragraph on it. I’ll have a look in a mo. My dog used to suffer from it. Was always cleaning it out and treating it after lamping. It snapped off on

So I’m not he only inexperienced Cnut to use a soft tooth brush eh haha haha

I think in fairness to mick . No one said early on not to brush into the quick,  but away from them . What a brush can do that a soft cloth can't in that scenario,  I don't know.  I've known men to pick under the skin with a needle to loosen dirt . But imo the quick gets irreparable damage

Don and I said we use a soft toothbrush to clean the dogs nails;  nothing more, nothing less.

mC said he doesn’t use a brush. Fine, that’s his choice, but why make a big deal of it ?

I’m sure Don, Penny and I have been around long enough to know how to clean our dogs feet.

Ive been doing it for almost 60 years and never had a problem.

Cheers.

The dog in talking about had mail beds like foreskins haha so the brush was needed tk get it out, I don’t care what anybody says it cut for the infections by about 80% compared to jist soaking the feet, we was out 5/6 nights a week mate, selling everythin we lamped, few lads on here saw the dog an bags we had, we done what we needed to to get results an if just a soak would have worked we would have done that haha we needed the dog as part of the team so we done what was needed to keep him on his feet haha 

For any one that  can read 😆 

Talking cleaning nails is a non starter aint it I could use sandpaper wouldn't matter the thread was about sore nail.beds infection if  you think a brush will help that rather then Cause or make it worse  we think different
