woah. reminds me of when i was grooming a 2 yr old bmd and it had a dew claw that was completely incased in its skin. like it was just a big lump of flesh...with a dew claw in it. its so hard to explain. it looked like a tumor... but there was a dew claw in there. if you felt the weird flesh lump you could feel the claw curling inside
told the owner and he had to have it amputated

I work at a vet clinic and some nail trims are mind blowing. I have never seen this.

It's kinda cute

WOW!

Is that a nail? Or some wild growth?

It’s a nail, coming out of the second dewclaw on the back foot of this shih tzu. It was wild.

It is bizarre.

WOW how do you even deal with this?!

I clipped it tiny little bit by bit, and luckily this was a very patient shih tzu!

Aww... but now how is she going to open a bottle of wine?

I saw something like this today! A GP had two dew claws on the back feet, but there was a third dew claw growing out of the skin in between them. It was definitely hard like a nail and pointy, but it was oddly shaped. We didn’t mess with it, but it was so weird!

A while back I had a dog with all it's nails about to curl in. As soon as I began trimming there was a really smelly green gel in the center of the nails. It was so gross! But the dog could finally walk properly afterwards

forbidden cheeto

I’ve seen them curled like ram horns before but not this!

The entire foot is wonky 😬... I’m far from surprised at this point.

You have to wonder if this dog ever receives veterinary care... How can this be missed for so long that the dog grows its own corkscrew?

It’s one of those kind that you almost don’t wanna cut

IS THAT A NAIL

How does that even happen??
