    Lots of info on the Greyhounds with SLO group on Facebook! My Mickey lost all but two nails in a couple months. They grew back all crazy looking, and those also fell out. He would later go for five or six months without losing any, and would only lose one or two at a time. It's not life threatening, and can be managed. I seldom took him to the vet for a lost nail once I learned to control the bleeding. I would only wrap for a short time. They seemed to heal better when left alone. I did have to stop his therapy dog visits because I didn't want him to bleed all over the floor in the school or nursing home. Sometimes there can be a lot of blood! I followed the grassmere protocol noted earlier. Good luck!
