✂️ How to cut your dog's nails without stress? The easy and reassuring guide

Nail trimming is essential for your dog's health and comfort. Overgrown nails can cause pain, hinder walking, and even cause injuries.

Don't dare to give it a try? Don't worry: with a few simple tips, you can do it yourself, at home, safely and calmly. Follow the guide!

🐾 Why should you cut your dog's nails?

• To prevent joint pain or leg deformities.
• To prevent broken nails , which can be very painful.
• To reduce the risk of scratches (on you or your furniture 😅).

💡 Tip: If you hear your dog's nails "clicking" on the ground, it's time to trim them!

📆 How often should you cut your nails?

It depends on your dog:

• Dogs active on hard ground: every 2 to 3 months
• Inactive or indoor dogs: every 3 to 4 weeks
• Small dogs or puppies: check monthly

Tip: the claws on the back legs wear less → remember to check all 4 legs!

✂️ How to properly trim your dog's claws?

Materials needed:

• A nail clipper adapted to the size of the dog
• A soft file (optional)
• Hemostatic powder for small cuts
• Treats to reward 🦴

Steps:

1. Choose a time when your dog is calm.
2. Place it comfortably (on a cushion for example).
3. Gently grasp the paw and locate the translucent part of the nail .
4. Cut little by little, at an angle , without ever reaching the pink part (the "vein").
5. Praise and reward after each leg cut!

⚠️ If your dog has black nails, cut very little at a time and use a lamp to see better.

❌ To avoid:

• Cut too short (risk of bleeding)
• Force if the dog panics (better to do it in several times)
• Use standard scissors (unsuitable, dangerous)
