Hey guys,

I was wondering if anybody had some suggestions on what to do with a cracked nail? I'm not sure what he did, but Java started limping a bit today and when I checked out the paw he split one of his nails from the tip to almost the top on both sides. There was no blood, it's just the outer part of the nail. It doesn't seem to bother him a ton it's just if he hits it he limps for a minute and then is back to himself running around like the maniac he is. Anything in particular I should do or should I let it be? I'm about to go put him in the tub to soak it a bit as he got some mud stuck in there when I took him out.

You might try super glue or nail glue in the split.

If he'll let you cut it shorter, try to do that (just don't quick him).

If not, just leave it be and it will eventually fall off on it's on.
