The Best Dog Nail Clippers Are Guillotine Trimmers.
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.
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.
There are a few vital things to bear in mind if you are going to do it yourself.
Invest in a high quality set of trimmers, and ensure you know exactly where to cut the nail.
Without these you will have a recipe for disaster on your hands.
The quick is the area to watch for when you trim your dog’s nails, you should cut below this. It is easy with dogs with transparent or light coloured nails but harder with dark nails so take care!

Take your dogs paw in your hand firmly - it’s often best to have the dog tucked under your arm.
Get the nail clearly in view by pressing on the “toe”, identify the quick and trim nail at a 45 degree angle. Take off slivers each time, don’t be too ambitious.
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!
