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

If the nails grow too long, many health problems can result, such as bleeding and broken nails and ingrown nails.

Your dog’s paws need to be kept in tip top condition as he uses them all the time.

Does a tapping sound from your dog’s nails seem familiar? If so it’s time for a trim; so the next question is do you go to a pro or do you trust yourself anout to do it at home?

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.

The best position is to sit with your dog in your lap taking his paw in your hand.

The nail will extend if you gently push the pad; now you have to try to ascertain where the quick is and below that point start to trim at 45 degrees. Little by little is the key, don’t hurry this job.

Finish the nails off by checking you haven’t left sharp or uneven edges.

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.

These trimmers are great for home or salon use. A pair of Master Grooming Tools Guillotine Nail Clippers will last a good time too as they are made to last and perform well.

The trimmers are designed with both dog and owner in mind, and come with a lifetime guarantee.

The trimmers are great both for the dog, with sharp blades to make nail trimming stress free, and good for the owner with the ergonomic design to reduce stress on the body or the chance of accidents.
