How do you treat a bleeding paw?

Well i would advise that you call a vet and ask what you should do and in the mean time rap the paw in a cloth or bandage to stop the bleeding. take some cloth and keep it on to stop the blood How bad is the wound? You'd bandage it the same as if your child needed bandaging. It will help if you and your dog have a good relationship because he is not going to like what you have to do. First you'll have to clean the paw - I'd use Betadine, an antibacterial soap, and soak the paw then VERY GENTLY blot the paw dry and make sure the wound is clean, no little frags of dirt or pebbles, dead skin or any other foreign matter. Next I'd dust it with an Antibiotic powder that you can get at a co-op, maybe Walgreen's or Target also carry it. Now comes the tricky part - getting a bandage to stay on the paw and the dog is not going to help. If the cut is not too deep you can use something like Nexcare liquid bandage, if it's too deep for that your best bet would be to bandage it as best you can and then cover the paw with an old sock. He'll worry at it - be patient and he should heal well. Good luck
