My husband's Chessie is having toenail problems. I honestly think he's
chewing them, but his toenails seem to be coming apart in layers. I'm
trying to keep the nails short then cut the layers back as they separate.
Anyway ever hear of this? He's an extremely active dog.
Sounds like it could be SLO/symetrical lupoid onychodystrophy.
One of my greyhounds has it and it is very difficult to treat. The nails
split and fall off, even with treatment the new nails are not normal. These
sites have good information:
