You Want To Keep Your Dog's Nails Trimmed So they Have Proper Traction.
If Your Dog's Nails Get Too Long, Your Pooch Will Compensate And Alter The Gait.
This Causes Another Set Of Problems.
Long Nails Also Scratch Up The Floor (even if it's carpeting).
When Your Dog Has An Itch They Could Scratch Their Skin,
Ears or Bellies To Bleeding.
Long Nails Also Scratch The Human.

_____________________________________________
To Get The Most Cooperation From Your Dog For Nail Trimming, Start Slow.
You're Training Your Dog Them.
Have Paw Caressing Sessions For Several Days To Get Them Used
To Their Paws Being Touched.
If Your Feet Are Ticklish, You Completely Understand This!
Remember: Lots Of Praise, Praise, Praise.
_____________________________________________
When You Trim Your Dog's Nails, Take Off The Tip Of The Nail.
This Is About 1/8" TO 1/4".
Start With The Smaller Trim.
Be Careful! If You Trim Too Much And Cut The Quick,
There Will Be Blood. Don't Panic. If You Do, So Will Your Dog!
If You Cut The Quick, Apply The Stypic Powder.
It Typically Comes In A Container That Your Dog's Nail Will Fit
Into Perfectly.
If You Don't Have Stypic Powder, Use Corn Starch.
Put The Corn Starch In A Bowl. Gently Put Pressure On Your Dog's Paw
To Extend The Bleeding Nail And Put It In The Corn Starch Or Stypic Powder.
Leave The Stypic Powder or Corn Starch On The Nail
Until It Falls Off By Itself.
Praise, Praise, Praise.
Don't Worry. Your Dog Will Be Fine And So Will You.
_____________________________________________
Don't Stop The Session. Finish Trimming Your Dog's Nails,
Take Off A Bit Less On The Remaining Nails.
Praise, Praise, Praise.
After Your Done, Give Your Pooch A Treat.
The Next Dog Nail Trimming Will Be Better and Soon Your Dogh Will Know
If They're Good About The Nail Trim, They Get A Treat.
Food Is A Terrific Motivator.
_____________________________________________
If Your Dog Has Super Long Claw Type Nails,
You Can Either Trim Every 2 Weeks 1/8" to 1/4" Off
Until They're The Desired Length Or Take Your Dog To The Vet,
Sedate Them With Puppy Valium Or Something Like That,
And Have Them Dremeled (a fancy word for an electric spinning nail file).
Dremeling Will Cost You For Knock Out Juice,
The Dremel And The Kennel For The Day.
It's A Terrific Option For
Those That Don't Want To
Trim Nails Every Two Weeks Until Desired Length Is Met
Or The Nails Are Soooo Long, This Is The Very Best Thing To Do.
Before Making A Decision, Talk With Your Veterinarian
About Dremeling Versus Long Term Trimming.
