  1. That Facebook group has lots of good info. My Mickey had SLO. It gets better and easier to manage with time. He lost all his nails in about six months. Some never grow back and some grow twisted. Sometimes he would go for six months with only losing one or two. I never took him to the vet for removal after the first few. Much less bleeding over time. He hated having his foot wrapped, so I just used a light layer of glaze inside a baby sock for a day or two. The toe would be fine after that. Not life threatening, and not costly to manage. It did end his therapy dog career because he could lose a nail and bleed at any time. Not cool in a group of disabled kids. He was usually not in pain. Some of the meds can be reduced over time, but he continued on fish oil, vitamin E and niacinimide. Check out that group. Good luck. It gets better.
