Last year in this area, somehow Dawg bent one of his toenails at a 90 degree. He started limping, and we stopped to see what happened. He had crushed a claw on his back foot right at the quick. I was forced to use the wire-cutters on my multi-tool to cut the nail off. This prompted me to add his nail cutters to our first aid kit this year. My multi-tool worked, but it was awkward and not nearly as sharp as the dog-specific tool. This is the downside of having a super high-energy and powerful dog. They accelerate and turn at ridiculous speeds, and their bodies are not always capable of surviving the forces involved. |
