Dog nail problems: A broken nail can also cause a lot of pain, limping, and irritation. Keeping a close eye on the size of your puppy's nails is very necessary because long can break. If it happen, you must cut it to relieve the pain and to prevent more injury to the paw or infections. If the root of the puppy's nail has not been affected, the dog's nail should grow back without any problem. Sometimes puppy's nails will get infected because of bacteria, virus, or a fungus. If you find your puppy limping you should start by examining the puppy's paws very carefully and in if your puppy's nails are hurt, infected or have lesions, then the best thing is to call the veterinarian.
Puppy cysts: When your puppy is constantly licking and biting at its paw and trying to alleviate the pain. It could be a cyst. A cyst is a "sack" of liquid surrounded by body tissue. Cysts normally need to be treated by a veterinarian. It must be noted that cysts don't usually cause any harm to the animal's health, but it's best to take the animal to the veterinarian to check just in case. Cysts often remain unchanged in shape and size for months or even years, and continuous licking may lead to various problems. Such cases need Veterinary attention and should not be delayed.
