My dog chews her toenails!

I had a tiny black Pomeranian for 14 years and she always chewed her back toe nails. Not the front ones, just the back ones. I guess they were easier to get to! I don't think I ever had to trim her back nails. Sometimes it was annoying but I mostly just ignored it. It didn't work to stop it, she just went into another room and did it so, I didn't make a fuss about it. She was a good dog and she didn't get sick often so I guess it never hurt her, thank goodness! Sometimes she even tried to chew on MY toenails[on the big toe], the little nut! Now that, I definitely discouraged!

my puppy is like that too. she's a 3 yr old jack russell terrier. She likes to bite her nails and it really annoys me specially when im next to her, what i do sometimes is hold her feet and so she would stop, i don't want her to get use to it, it just scares me also that she'll break all her nails and hurt herself.. i give her treats also so she'll chew the food instead.

Well this is the first I heard of nail biting but my dog likes to gnaw on the blanket until she is ready to settle down, and if I dont end up trying ways to stop her she can do it all night! We usually just give her a little pat and tell her no and she tends to learn after a few minutes most of the time but I guess try different little methods that you find work for you with your dog and I sometimes wish mine would chew her toenails they get incredibly long!
