I had a dog lose a complete toenail tonight.  Didn't seem to be in to much pain but was holding it up as much as possible.  Anybody ever had this happen before?  Will it grow back eventually?  Will it keep him from hunting for a while?

alcohol and peroxide prevent healing but do steralize the area, use a different antiseptic like iodine
