Default broken dog nail

Hello everyone,
My 2 yr. old beagle broke his nail on his hind leg. I trimmed what I
could without clipping the quick but on the initial break there was
some bleeding (I only saw the blood on his paws between his claws).
The bleeding subsided quickly as there wasn't much blood.

Should I bandage this and take him to the vet?


Or will the new nail grow in and he'll pretty much heal himself in
about a week?


I've heard contradicting advice.

Thanks in advance for replying,
