Good questions
Before you begin.
How can I tell my dog's nails are too long?
If you can hear clicking on hard floors, or the nails touch the ground when your dog stands, they are likely due a trim.
Is clipping painful?
A careful groomer trims small amounts and avoids the quick, the sensitive part of the nail. Dogs that dislike paw handling can be eased in with short, patient practice.
Can I do it at home?
Some owners do, using clippers made for dogs. If you are unsure, ask a groomer or your vet to show you the first time.
Do I need to book the full groom?
No. Many groomers offer tidy-ups on their own, which suits dogs between full grooms.
