The vet removed the rest of the nail and she was bandaged for a week and took antibiotics. Luckily, no infection. The nail hasn't grown back, but there's been no problem with the "nail-less" toe.

Lost the whole nail! After a course of antibiotics and some bitter spray, for the constant licking he was good to go and in about 3 months his toe nail grwy back completely! We can't even tell now which one it was :) This happened to my basset hound too! Lost the whole nail!

A neighbor's dog was on a play date at our house, and ripped her nail clean off somehow! We cleaned it, and bandaged it here (oh what a sight that was -- Squirming Shih Tzu bleeding all over the house and wanted to keep playing with our dog), and took her home! I offered to take her to the vet, but her fur-mom said it wasn't necessary. Oh well, she escaped infection, luckily. This was helpful! I just had this happen to me!
