In fact, cyanoacrylate, the active ingredient in super glue, is often used to close surgical wounds. So don\u2019t worry, this can really be a useful way to stop dog nail bleeding. Even oral incisions are closed with glue, so it\u2019s safe for use on your dog.<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<h2 id=\"what-can-you-do-for-a-dog-s-split-nail\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_can_you_do_for_a_dogs_split_nail\"><\/span>What can you do for a dog\u2019s split nail?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>What should I do if my dog has a broken nail?<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Safely restrain your dog.

As Brie\u2019s case shows chewing on a tube of super glue can cause the mouth to seal shut as it hardens when it comes into contact with saliva. \u201cIf you your dog has eaten super glue you should seek urgent veterinary advice.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"should-i-take-my-dog-to-the-vet-for-a-broken\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Should_I_take_my_dog_to_the_vet_for_a_broken_nail\"><\/span>Should I take my dog to the vet for a broken nail?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>A bleeding or broken toenail is a very common injury in dogs.

Your dog will not bleed to death, but you may end up with a big mess on your hands! However, if it doesn\u2019t stop in a reasonable amount of time, get to the vet.
