Dog chews it's nails...
I have a 1.5 year old golden retriever who has never had to have her
nails clipped because she clips them herself... she chews them just above the quick and never any further... is there anything wrong with this other than me never having to clip her nails? she also opens all the doors in the house and alerts us if something is burning in the kitchen |

I don't see a problem here, if your dog isn't chewing into the quick or causing any irritation or infection around the nail. In fact, I wish my dogs would chew their own nails, so that I wouldn't have to clip them! Is your dog a service dog? Was she trained to open doors and alert, or did she just pick that up on her own?
