For A Perfect Pooch Choose Guillotine Nail Clippers.

Expert Trimmers are essential to keep your dog’s nails trimmed short.

Overly long nails in humans are annoying but in dogs they can split and break causing bleeding paws.

Your dog’s feet are tough but tender, and any foot injury can cause serious problem to move about.

There’s an easy way to know if your dog is overdue nail clipping and that is the sound of click-click-click of the nails on hard floors. You can take your dog to a professional groomer for a manicure, or you can do it yourself.

If doing it yourself is your style, remember a couple of vital rules.

You need the right equipment and you need to have some knowledge of the anatomy of your dog’s paw.

If you don’t prepare you may end up with a dog with a sore foot and a lifelong hatred of having his nails trimmed.

Everyone knows how sore it is when you cut your nail too low - the same goes for dogs, so it is important to know where the nerve starts. You need to cut below the quick, which is easy to identify by the end of the pink color.

Firstly let’s look at the equipment; Master Grooming Tools Guillotine Nail Clippers are a great solution, as they are designed with the user in mind with non-slip, low impact grip so your hand won’t get tired and you won’t lose your grip even if it’s wet. The sharp blades mean that trimming is easy and safe.

Next let’s look at the procedure for cutting nails.

Take your dogs paw in your hand firmly - it’s often best to have the dog tucked under your arm.

Push on the pad to extend the nail and trim the nail below the quick at a 45 degree angle. Trim only small amounts at a time.

Once the major clipping has been done, taking care not to trim the nails too short, check the edges for jagged or rough edges and tidy.

It’s so important to trim the nail carefully as you can seriously hurt your dog with a slip of the hand - and you will know about it!

If by accident you do manage to cut the quick use Gimborn Kwik Stop Styptic Gel with Benzocaine to stop bleeding immediately.
