 Place a tiny piece of tissue paper tightly against the end of the nail and hold it for a few minutes.  Better yet, have some Quick Stop Powder available and put a small amount up against the bleeding end of the nail.  This works right away. Or... do nothing.  The bleeding will stop in about 5 to 7 minutes. Any more than that...give your veterinarian a call.
